Top Beaches in Maharashtra

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!

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.

Check out the local stalls for beachwear or souvenirs – I found some cute items at much lower prices than in tourist shops.

If you’re hungry, try the street food stalls near the beach. The pav bhaji and bhel puri are delicious and really affordable. Don’t miss out!

I suggest visiting Kashid Beach during weekdays. It was super chill compared to the crowds on weekends, and you can snag a nice spot on the sand without fighting for space.

You might wanna bring your own water and snacks. Some stalls can be pricey, and having your own stuff saved me a lot!

I recommend checking out the beach during weekdays if you can. The weekends get super crowded, and you won't enjoy the peaceful vibe.

I recommend carrying some cash. While there are ATMs nearby, they can be unreliable, and some local shops don’t accept cards

I recommend checking out the local seafood shacks, but don't get too excited with the first one you see. Some are way better than others, so walk a bit to find the good ones.

pack your own snacks and drinks! the beach shacks can be overpriced, and having your own picnic makes it feel like a proper day out without breaking the bank.

If you wanna take a dip, go for the morning. The water felt cleaner and less crowded early on. Just be cautious of the waves in the afternoons; they can get pretty rough

Get there before 7 AM to catch the stunning sunrise - it’s worth waking up early! Plus, you'll beat the crowds and have a more peaceful experience.

I suggest checking out local events or festivals happening while you're there. I stumbled upon a lively music festival during my visit—it was a blast!

You might want to avoid visiting on weekends if you can. It gets super crowded; I went on a Tuesday and it was so much better. Less noise, more space.
