Bus travel to Mangalore: Top attractions in Mangalore 

  • St Aloysius Chapel: Perched on Mangaluru’s Lighthouse Hill, this Jesuit-built chapel is a central attraction. Inside its gold-hued interior, visitors can view a series of vibrant frescos and murals depicting the life of the Saint. 
  • Gokarnanatheshwara Temple: This Hindu institution sits next to the city’s Gurupura River. Its ornate architecture is beautiful to behold at any time of day, but is unmissable at night when fully illuminated.  
  • Mangaladevi Temple: Titled after the city’s namesake deity, Mangaladevi, this ancient Hindu temple is one of the best places to view traditional Kerala style architecture. 
  • Ullal Beach: Soak in the Karnataka sunshine at beaches like Ullal, located just outside the city centre. Here, you’ll find clean waters and golden sands framed with lush casuarina trees, alongside lively bars and restaurants.  
  • Sultan Battery: Constructed in 1784 by Tipu Sultan using black stones, this stately tower was designed to withstand invaders. It still stands watch over the city, and visitors who climb to the top of the watch tower are rewarded with magnificent seaside views.  

Getting around Mangalore

  • Mangalore City Buses: Mangalore’s bus station is in the State Bank. The Mangalore city bus network is very convenient, with multiple private companies serving routes throughout the city.  You’ll also find public city buses operated by the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC).

Best time to visit Mangalore 

While Mangalore is pleasant to visit at any time of year thanks to its balmy sea breezes, monsoon season can bring tropical conditions with occasional heavy rainfall. To keep dry, it may be worth booking your bus to Mangalore between late September and February. Milder temperatures, teamed with less humidity, mean it’s a great time to see the sights. Some of Mangaluru’s most vibrant cultural festivals take place during peak seasons. Mangaluru Dasara spans ten days of celebrations in September-October, showcasing traditional dance, music, and evening light displays. Of course, if you don’t mind hotter temperatures, the off-peak period between March and May brings optimal beach weather, all with fewer crowds.  

Mangalore culinary delights 

With a rich, centuries-old history of trade and resulting cultural exchanges from Europe and the Middle East, Mangalorean cuisine is a rich melting pot of flavour. The region’s fertile soil, tropical climate and seaside location also ensure that fresh ingredients, particularly seafood, coconut, and spices, are used in abundance. Sampling fish fry is a must when visiting Mangalore, with fresh-caught seafood marinated in red chilli and tamarind. Alternatively, try the Kori Rotti, a complex spicy chicken curry served with wafer-thin rice sheets. Don’t miss the chance to taste Mangalore Buns, deep-fried savoury treats made with ripe bananas. And if you’re looking for a souvenir to take back home, visit a market to stock up on Mangalore’s locally produced cashews and coffee.
