Due to the approaching monsoon and in order to ensure the safety of tourists, the Udupi district administration has implemented a four-month ban on tourist entry to St. Mary’s Island, a popular destination off the Malpe coast in Udupi. This ban took effect from May 16 and will last until September 15. During this period, all adventure water sports on the island will also be suspended, as sea waves intensify and wind speeds increase.
