By taking a tour of the local and start your trek from main beach to half moon Beach.
Make sure you watch the sunset from one of the hills
You can stay back at the beach for the night if u feel comfortable or else get back to your rooms

Day 2

Get ready by 12  and then visit the mahabaleshwar temple near main beach and then take a boat to paradise beach, u can also trek till Paradise Beach but it is preferable to take the boat and spend some quality time @ the beach and then get back through the boat and back to your room.

Day 3

Lie on the bed if you want to relax and get out of the room as the humidity Slides down , have a word with locals and also know their ancestral background, they have really amazing house and they are so old which will make you admire the architect of the building.

Spend the whole day in the village and get back home with an unforgettable memory.
