KOTI THEERTHA


Koti Tirtha A Holy Lake of Gokarna!

Koti Theertha is a holy lake where people take bath over here and perform “karma kriya”(ritual perform after the death of a person) to find salvation for the atmas(soul).

Shiva linga is emplaced in the middle of the lake. Karm Kriya is also performed at “Pitru Shala” near beach road. Every year Maha Shivaratri will be celebrated with great spirit, devotion and belief. During this period of time entire lake is decorated with flowers, and light to welcome lord Mahabaleshwara. Pilgrimages visit this holy lake to worship Lord Koteshwara every day. Boating facilities are available from the bank of the lake to Koteshwara which is situated in the middle of the lake.

People are advised to take more care while bathing in the lake. Don't swim in the lake unless an until you know swimming. Follow the rules set by the local Panchayat. Keep children away from the lake. Use water only for holy dip and not for any other purposes. Maintain cleanliness.
