Today this place has great view of the arbian sea beacause the orginal place located on hillock in the sea was approachable only by wading through sea water has been now joined bh roads to the mainland . I remember to have visited the placs in 2010 when I had to wade throught knee deep shallow water particular duri g low tide . Thabks tk the vision of one great person who decided to develop this Murudeshwar . He build 20 + stories tall tower in front of the renovated temple garden with big idols for attraction a huge building for visitors stay including hotel . I travelled from pune we had fine visit to the temple followed by visit to the graden where a great statue of sitting Shiva is erected and can be seen from miles away.
Since the temple close at 1 pm and opens at 3 pm we can go and do darshan .
Overall this place is very good to visit with family and friends .
