Day 1: Jagat Mandir Darshan, Heritage Confluence & Coastal Sunset
Begin your Saturday at 6:30 AM attending the Mangla Aarti at Dwarkadhish Temple. Afterward, descend the steps of Swarg Dwar to take a holy dip or boat ride at Gomti Ghat.

Day 2: Sudarshan Setu, Bet Dwarka & Shivrajpur Scuba Diving
Start Sunday morning by driving north across the spectacular Sudarshan Setu cable-stayed bridge to Bet Dwarka. Visit the ancient island palace temple of Lord Krishna. On your return journey, stop at Nageshwar Jyotirlinga to view the 80-foot Shiva statue and collect yellow Gopi Chandan at Gopi Talav. By early afternoon, head to the Blue Flag certified Shivrajpur Beach for recreational scuba diving among coral reefs or relaxing by the pristine white sands. Return to Dwarka in the evening for the concluding Shayan Aarti at Jagat Mandir.
