Panambur Beach is a wide, sandy stretch just north of the city, known for its relatively organised facilities, food stalls, camel rides and seasonal events. It’s popular for sunsets over the Arabian Sea, beach festivals and casual outings, giving tourists a simple, lively coastal experience close to an industrial port city.
About this place
History & highlights
Mangaluru has been a historic port for centuries, but organised beach tourism is more recent. As roads improved and the New Mangalore Port developed in the late 20th century, Panambur was promoted as a safe, accessible public beach. Local authorities and private operators introduced lifeguards, kiosks and festivals, turning an ordinary shoreline into a branded urban beach destination, balancing port activity with leisure.
