(^32) Devgad Beach - Kunkeshwar – 25 km
Waking to dolphins playing in the ocean, one could tell the day would be a
scorcher. We intended to pedal to Malvan, but Amanda found the heat and hills
debilitating. The weather wasn’t only boiling but humid too, so one sweated
buckets.
The first turn-off was towards tiny Kunkeshwar, which provided a room with a
fan. At least Amanda could shower and rest under the ceiling fan for the rest of
the day. In addition, our abode offered an excellent opportunity to do much-
needed housekeeping. Kunkeshwar, a tiny village, consisted solely of a temple,
a few restaurants, and a hotel. Built around 1100 AD, the temple boasted a
beautiful beach-front location, making it an ideal place to watch the sunset. Our
supper was a plate of good Indian food, our single option—this was, after all,
India.
