    You could stop at Kokanwadi Resort for a quick coffee before heading to the lighthouse the terrace gives a nice sea view and the walk to the lighthouse is only a few minutes from the car park. From the airport or bus stand, an auto takes about 10 15 minutes to the lighthouse, then the 2 km walk to Mandvi Beach takes roughly 20 minutes, so you’ll hit the beach right before sunset if you leave the lighthouse around 3 p.m.
