    You could start at the lighthouse around 3 p.m. to catch the early sunset light, then walk the 2 km to Mandvi Beach. The walk takes about 20 minutes, so you’ll be on the shore just as the sun dips. From the airport or bus stand, an auto rickshaw drop off near the lighthouse is quick, and you can walk the short stretch to the beach. If you’re staying nearby, a coffee break at the Kokanwadi Resort in Dhokamale before heading out would be a nice touch.
