Malpe is the neighborhood beach for the Manipal University students. It is bit crowded during the weekends but a good place to hangout though. Beautiful place.worth a visit.especially at the time of sunset.
You can see an island from the beach, it’s called saint Mary’s, there are regular boat rides to the island during non monsoon season. Definitely something you would want to visit if you have the time, takes a day.
It is a perfect place to hangout with Friends/ Family.
Enjoy!
