Help! Need to get to Kerala
Can anyone help...? Staying in Goa at the moment, have just moved on from a lovely peaceful time in Patnem to Bagadorm (as I like to call it) and need/want to get to Kerala asap. Have checked train time table and there is w/l till mid May (havent checked beyond)....can anyone suggest any other way to get there or suggest somewhere could maybe stop in between to break journey up? Want to stay near a beach for now, not too hectic - just want to get out of Goa really :-( Was thinking Gokarna? Does anyone know how to get there by train? Any help appreciated :-)
Michaela **my soul was destroyed after they played bingo to a horde of middle aged couples at the first bar we walked into in Baga last night :-( - thought I was in the local ex-servicemans club back home! |

You can get to Gokarna by bus also. Should take around 4 hours.
Here's a site with some good info on Gokarna. http://www.globosapiens.net/travel-i...arna-2070.html BTW, how was Patnem? Was it crowded? Is the Om restaurant still there? What are prices for rooms now? |

The Madgaon - Mangalore train stops at Gokarna Road as do some other services. The station is a (fair) few kilometres from Om Beach. But Gokarna isn't much further down the road to Kerala from where you are now, how 'bout Udupi or Kasaragod (for Bekal)?

If you wish to travel to Gokarna, then its even more convenient traveling on one of the daily trains in the Konkan route - the time taken would be around 2 hours from Madgoan to Gokarna station. http://www.konkanrailway.com lists the schedule of trains. |
