Agumbe 70kms south-west, is
                unforgettable for its glorious sunset. It is a lovely scenic spot in the heart of
                Karnataka.The sun takes on different colours and shapes as its sets every evening and this
                is reflected in the Arabian Sea. A winding ghat road and its spellbinding view ascends to
                an altitude of 826 m. Here lies Agumbe, situated around 32 km from Thirthahalli in Shimoga
                district.  Viewed from a platform the many hues of twilight and the setting sun are
                at their best during the months of November, December and January.   |
