Mulki Adventure Tour
Trek at a glance
Trek highlights
For most people, Karnataka means the city of Bangalore – and as vibrant and full of life this city might be, there is so much that the state has to offer. One trip down the coastline and you will want to keep coming back.
Now, let us tell you, why the Mulki adventure trip will make you want to redo the trip:
- Post an overnight journey, you will arrive in Mulki, all set for your first surfing lesson at India’s first surf club – Mantra Surf Club
- Practice, refine and revel, while azure blue waters sparkle at your feet
- The thrill of catching the first wave will remain imprinted in your mind
- Refuel with a delicious meal and laze around in hammocks, staring out at the beckoning backwaters
- Kayak into the horizon, as the sun finally bids adieu to the day
- Close the day with fun and games, some conversation with newfound friends and a luscious dinner
- Gear up for an early morning session for Stand-Up Paddleboarding and embrace the rhythm of nature
- Relish an elaborate South Indian feast at a beloved local eatery and feed your soul along the way

Trek detail itinerary
Once at the destination you will be able to refresh yourself before your maiden surfing lesson. Take a light breakfast at the on-site canteen and be at the beach by 8:00am. There is a comfortable atmosphere of cool morning sun and experienced trainers help you to learn the basics of surfing. Two hours in the water, practicing, will feel like a couple of hours of your time spent rightfully, including a fall or two, and a good splash, as well as an incredible sensation of getting your first wave. Drink water and not too much, just enough to keep the session productive.
At 11:00am, come back to the campus to chill out. There will be a healthy brunch in the middle of the day with rice, dal, vegetables of the season, and condiments. Afternoons are yours to relax in, by the backwaters perhaps in a hammock or just by relaxing.
Between the hours of 4:00pm and 6:30pm, have a sunset kayaking adventure around the serene backwaters. Paddle amidst spectacular surroundings and then back to camp to spend an evening with games, dialogue and relaxation. There is a self-sponsored dinner at the in house cafe. The best way to end a day of thrill is to get a good night's sleep.

No alcohol or smoking
For everyone’s safety and enjoyment, please don’t consume alcohol, intoxicants, or smoke at any point during the journey or trek.
Dinner before boarding
Kindly complete your dinner before you board the bus.
Travel arrangements
We’ll arrange transportation based on our group size. If there are 12 or fewer of us, we’ll use a tempo traveler. For groups of 13 or more, it’ll be a mini-bus. Both options are non-AC and have push-back seats for your comfort. We appreciate your understanding regarding our travel logistics.
"Without Travel" option
If you prefer to arrange your own transportation to the destination (the homestay), be sure to book the “Without Travel” option when you sign up. Please note: If you select this, you’ll need a private car for your entire trip. Public transport won’t work, as our Day 2 activities begin directly from the homestay and require continuous private car access to ensure you can fully participate in all planned activities.
