Maravanthe (Kannada: ಮರವಂತೆ) is a beach near Kundapura, Karnataka, India. It is 50 kilometers from Udupi. The national highway NH-17 passes close to this beach (around 100 meters from the shore) and a stretch of a kilometer of this highway is flanked by the seashore of Arabian sea on one side and the Sauparnika River on the other. Kannada, Tulu and Konkani are spoken here.

There's a resort named Turtle Bay Beach Resort which gets its name from the sea turtles that inhabit the beach during the nesting season from October to December every year.
There is one more resort named, Sagar Kinara Beach Resort which is just sea-side beauty. You can reach it thru: http://www.maravanthe.tk
