Tourism

The waters off Dwarka offer an abundance of marine life and stunning coral formations, making it a popular destination for both novice and experienced scuba divers. Beginners can opt for introductory dives and guided tours, while more experienced divers can explore the depths of the ocean without any assistance.

Parasailing is one of the activities that is filled with fun and adventure. If you are witnessing individuals parasailing off the shore, you too might be dreaming about taking part in such an exciting activity. However, without knowing what to expect, this once-in-a-lifetime experience may bring fear instead of excitement. Fear and uncertainty are all normal feelings when you are not fully aware of the things to expect as you soar through the air. This is why it is important that you get to know what it feels like to be part of a parasailing experience so you can enjoy the activity.

It’s a great experience when you encounter dolphins. If you haven’t had any encounter with these creatures in the past, it’s natural to feel frightened since you’re trying something new. Remember that dolphins are friendly creatures, and have even been known to rescue humans from drowning. The tour guides will help you understand what to expect, so you can watch the dolphins play without fear.

The blue water turned white as it bubbled over my toes

The soft sand had my feet got enclosed. 

Even from a distance, I clearly saw the friendly fins

Waltzing with the gentle waves were the lively dolphins.

They seemed far but still within my reach

 But then, that was how everything was - on Shivrajpur beach.

He arranged the yellow dhoti and then opened the jewelry box. The gold chain with red stones seemed perfect to compliment the Lord's yellow garbs and so, he chose that for the evening. With that, the Lord was ready to see his devotees. The other man in the room slowly opened the door as his senior picked a Pooja thali in one hand and rang the bell with the other. "Jai Sri Krishna" - he roared before he began his rhythmic chants. The crowd repeated in chorus and thus began the evening aarti at Shree Dwarkadhish Temple.

Beyt Dwarka is the first place I visited on my trip to Dwarka. We drove from my hotel towards the holy place 36 km away. 30 km on land and 5 km on the sea is what you need to cover before you set foot on the island of Beyt Dwarka also called Bet Dwarka and Shankhodhar.

We pass through the city of Dwarka which is locally called Gomti Dwarka on our left, Rukmini Temple on our right followed by vast stretches of dry land all around. Then came the hillocks of unprocessed salt – in shades of grey. Tata Chemicals – the producer of the popular salt brand Tata Salt has its manufacturing facility at Mithapur. Mithapur in Gujarati means salt city. There are Navy offices on the left and then we see the jetty full of colorful boats on our right.
