India /Maharashtra /Raigad / Shrivardhan

Shrivardhan region of the state of Maharashtra, especially Konkan region, has been liberally sprinkled with a profusion of long stretches of serene and beautiful virgin beaches. These beaches, many of them unexplored even by the most ardent tourist, have an uncharacteristic appeal that has started drawing hordes of people from all walks of life. Shrivardhan comes along as place equally blessed by the Lords. Bestowed upon with majestic white sand coastline splattered with palm groves shades and mango plantations, Shrivardhan blows one off the feet with the shear amount of variations the beauty offers. Add the numerous other attractions like the daunting places of religious worship, exotic culinary spread (seafood to be particular), verdant pastures and bucolic lifestyles of the local fishermen and you have the best combination of an all-round tourist destination. A history of Shrivardhan for over 200 years is replete with glorious tales of Maratha warriors and their hounding efforts to maintain the “Hindavi-Swaraj”. The famous Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath was born here and was later chosen as the First Peshwa by the Maratha Ruler Chatrapati Sahu Maharaj. The Peshwa’s continued to rule the Maratha kingdom on behalf of the Kings for over a century till the British overtook them. Though the food may not be a problem what strikes most in the place is lack of any liquor shop. So, if you are planning your evening tipple along the beach better carry our own stuff. Another important accessory to remember is Mosquito net / repellent if you are planning an overnight stay for walk along the sea. Moreover, one has to be careful along these beaches as the water can rise pretty sharply and by the time one realizes the distance traveled to turn back the water may even start lapping at the belly.
