AWAY FROM MUMBAI CITY (Maharashtra).

 With the name MUMBAI CITY ,we often associate ,its happening lifestyle, Bollywood, big shopping mall culture, bustling traffic & lot of difficulties during rainy season...But ,still I say ,"its the best place in India to LIVE Life on your own terms".... People coming to mumbai ,stick to the city's inner circuit ...But as one drive out of the island city of mumbai ...

Kharghar International Golf Course(Navi-Mumbai).

Navi-mumbai is awesome place----planned well & spreaded across. As one drive out of Navimumbai , Alibaug is the nearest beach town that welcomes everyone to its shores...Nagoan beach,Mandwa beaches are too good.............Further down as U move on towards Murud & Rewdanda.......one will be left spellbound to witness the untouched beauty of the Konkan coast. Before ,one enters Murud ,they'll come across the white sand beach -Kashid beach( now-adays ,lot of watersport activities are taking place there)....its quite a flat beach................. Murud is a tiny town ,living in peace with the beauty of the sea. The Janjira fort in the midst of the sea , is also great to visit in tiny boats that sail across the sea.... Further down,one can visit Harihareshwar & Shrivardhan....At Harihareshwar,there's the famous Shiva temple & welknown as Dakshin Kashi....After Raigad distt. ends ,its the land of the Alphanso Mangoes(RATNAGIRI)............The famous, GANPATIPHULE BEACH,should always be in everyones itenary ,if intending to visit Mumbai.Since, I had been to Bondi beach( Sydney-Australia)...I felt , Ganpatiphule beach is far more better than Bondi , only it doesn't have a company to publicise; There many good hotels for those who intend to explore Ratnagiri ,which is complimented with high western ghats range as well the Arabian sea coast.
