"NISHKALANK" TAMPLE IN THE SEA (about 1 KM inside Arabian Sea) AT THE BAY OF CAMBAY AND GULF OF KHAMBHAT. NEAR BHAVNAGAR CITY. The story of the temple goes like thinks when Pandavas approached Lord Krishna to show the Marg to santify the sins of kurukshetra War. He send them on Pilgrimage with Black cow and Black Flag and instructed to conduct penance when/where the black cow/flag becomes WHITE. That is the place were they will be able to wash their sins. Here the cow/flag turned white and Lord Shiva appeared before Pandavas in the linga"Roopam ". The sea water recedes only at this temple point for few hours and return back. Every day the sea withdraw water to allow piligrims to have darshan of shiva at every ebb . Pilgrims patiently wait for the receding wave and have Darshan return safely before the tide come back "Har Har Mahadev" the belief supported by sundry religion.
