#Somnath - One Day Trip (Might extend to two)
*Accomodation : Available near Temple, no need to panic. Personal recommendations are - Somnath Trust has three to four bhavans.
The best & top one is Sagar Darshan - Rs 2550 onwards - All rooms are #SeaView . As soon as we stepped in, we made our mind to extend one more...
more... day. All covid protocols and hygience are followed, no need to panic. Room service although is limited, but appreciable.
Restaurant is also available which when reviewed from locals - referred us to checkin Sagar Darshan to get delicious and yummy food. Pocket friendy menu with direct view to sea. Post Lunch , Dinner walk alongside sea. NO thali system. If 20 or more rooms are booked at a time, then restaurant keeps buffet too (Rs 160 per person). Limited menu to be serviced directly to room.
Other Bhavan are Lilavati and Maheshwari - Room starts from 1000 onwards. They have dormitory also. These two have trust run food / thali also - Rs 70 to 80 per plate. Oitside these Bhavan, several street side restaurants.
Book online to not lose any hope. Of not, near bus stand, yu can find centralized booking office - search for any one bhavan.

*Visit to nearby places - Somnath Trust Bus are departing 0800AM & 0300PM - Rs 30 per person. Or Rickshaw would demand Rs 200 only Somnath (& Rs 300 to include Veraval).
