St. Mary's Island ( Malpe, Udupi )
St Mary’s Islands off the coast of Karnataka are four islands of immense geological value. The hexagonal columns of rock on the islands are similar to those on the Giant’s Causeway in Ireland and give clues to historic formation of land masses on the Earth’s surface.

These islands are 6 km out at sea and can be reached by ferry. The nearest harbour to these islands is the fishing harbour at Malpe from where there is a regular ferryservice. The ferry plies between 8:30 am to 5:30 pm and accommodates 30 persons per trip.

These rocks provide a convenient vantage point for tourists to catch a glimpse of Malpe harbour and the sunset over the Arabian Sea.
These islands do not have a sandy beach due to the rocks along the shoreline. A large variety of seashells are found along the rocks. Benches have been installednear the shoreline for the benefit of tourists. Apart from coconut palms, there is very little shade. The quality of amenities for tourists is very poor.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

=======
Karnataka, the eighth largest state in India, has been ranked as the third most popular state in the country for tourism in 2014.

The State Directorate of Archaeology and Museums protects an additional 752 monuments and another 25,000 monuments are yet to receive protection. Tourism centres on the ancient sculptured temples, modern cities, the hill ranges, forests and beaches. Broadly, tourism in Karnataka can be divided into four geographical regions: North Karnataka, the Hill Stations, Coastal Karnataka and South Karnataka.
The Karnataka government has recently introduced The Golden Chariot – a train which connects popular tourist destinations in the state and Goa.
