Tourism is a dynamic industry. It is the sum of phenomena and relationships arising from the travel and stay of non-residents, so far as they do not lead to permanent residence and are not connected with any earning activity.
Dakshina Kannada (Tulu: ದಕ್ಷಿಣ ಕನ್ನಡ, Kannada: ದಕ್ಷಿಣ ಕನ್ನಡ) (earlier known as South Kanara, or South Canara), is a coastal district in the state of Karnataka in India. It is bordered by Udupi District to the north, Chikkamagaluru district to the northeast, Hassan District to the east, Kodagu to the southeast, and Kasaragod District in Kerala to the south.
Dakshina Kannada can be said as land of culture, tradition and rituals. Even today, most people of the district follow traditions, customs and rituals. The district has many temples of Hindu gods and goddess, which are ancient and have deep spiritualism attached to them. The people of Dakshina Kannada worship the serpent god (Subramanya).
