Mondovi River flowing in Western Ghats bordering between 2 states creates a drop at colleen of Goa, bordering Karnataka. This is 4 tiered waterfalls and water jumps from the height of 310 metres above sea level and water falls like Sea of Milk and hence the name Dudh Sagar.
Legend has it that the beautiful princess who lived in the kingdom close to the falls used to take bath in the streams of this falls and after bathing, she used to drink the sweet milk in golden jug and on one such day after bathing, she found she was being watched by a prince. Red with embarrassment at her inadequate bathing attire, she poured the jug of water and entered the water to cover her body in the mean while the maids rushed to cover her with her dress. It is said that it is that sweetened milk that cascades down the mountain slope as Dudh sagar Falls to this day as a tribute to the virtue of the princess.
Dudh sagar Falls lies in the Bhagwan Mahavir Wild Life Sanctuary having much wildlife in it and this falls is one of the world's most exquisite falls. It lies high up in the Mondovi River's watershed, during the monsoon season falls are transformed into one of the most powerful falls in India.
