Ellora Caves
Jantar Mantar
Besant Nagar Beach
Grab some local snacks from the beach vendors. I tried the fresh corn and it was delicious. Prices are reasonable and it's fun to snack while you stroll!
Thiruvanmiyur Beach
My advice is to bring your own snacks and water. The beach shacks can be a bit pricey, and you’ll definitely want to stay hydrated while enjoying the sun
Watch out for the tide! I didn't pay attention and ended up with wet shoes. Check the tide schedule to plan your activities better.
Maidan
If you're planning to take photos, I recommend visiting around 7 AM. The morning light is perfect and it's not too crowded yet. I wish I had gone earlier!
I think it's smart to bring a water bottle and some snacks. There aren't many food stalls around, plus you can save a few bucks!
Take a stroll around the area and check out the nearby attractions. I missed out on some cool spots because I was too focused on Maidan itself. Don't make the same mistake!
My advice is to wear comfy shoes! Walking through the park can be tricky with the uneven paths, and trust me, your feet will thank you later.
Elephanta Caves
Gokarna Main Beach
I suggest taking a walk along the beach during the sunrise. It's just breathtaking and way less crowded than later in the day.
Juhu Beach
I suggest bringing some cash, as not all stalls take cards. Plus, the local vendors are more willing to haggle when you're paying in cash!
My advice is to go in the early morning or around sunset. The vibe is so much cooler and perfect for pics without the big crowd around
From my experience, wear flip-flops or sandals, the sand can get super hot, especially around noon. Trust me, your feet will thank you!
Sanjay Gandhi National Park
Check the local bus schedules if you're using public transport. They can be a bit unpredictable, so having a backup plan can save you a lot of time.
Definitely try to visit during the morning, around 8 AM. The park is way less crowded, and you can enjoy the peace and quiet while spotting wildlife.
If you're planning to hike to the Kanheri Caves, wear comfy shoes and carry water. It can get pretty steamy, and you'll want to stay hydrated.
My advice is to explore the outskirts of the park too. Some of the less-trodden paths offer unique views and fewer people.
Juhu Chowpatty
The beach can get pretty crowded, especially on weekends. I suggest visiting on a weekday if you want to chill and enjoy the vibe more peacefully.
If you can, hit up Juhu Chowpatty in the evening around 5 PM. The sunset views are totally worth it, and you'll avoid the crazy midday heat.
