If what you are looking for is a relaxing vacation away from the noisy city then pack your bags and head for SOANS ISLAND (formerly AMGOL) - a beautiful strip of land situated right at the mouth of Varahi River, 6 kms from Kundapur in the sleepy town of Basrur.  Forget all your troubles as you listen to the soothing sound of waves, and the swaying of tropical palms.  The surrounding water is home to several fresh water fish.

Barcelore, once an ancient trading town is located very close to the Island. 
The Arabian Sea is just a few miles from the southern tip of the
Island.  Except for a few staff the island is  completely uninhabited,
so the entire island and the surrounding water is yours to enjoy. 
The island still  close enough to civilization to remain in contact
with the rest of the world.

During your stay at SOANS ISLAND, you will be staying at one of
our modern cottages near the shoreline where one can dive into the
inviting waters from the balcony or feed fish from the steps.  While visiting us, you can bask in the sun, watch a glorious sunset, take a dip in the river, go for long walks and cycle rides, and feast on mouth watering food of your choice.  Surrounded by nature in its own tropical setting, one gets the feeling that you are miles from nowhere.

Bird Watching, Fishing, Trekking, Jeep Safari, Rafting, Snorkeling, Kayaking, Cycling.  Other than Bird Watching & Fishing rest of the activities are carried out in the nearby place by other operators.
