Alibaug Beach

Located along the coast of the Arabian Sea, the Alibaug Beach is a picturesque stretch of sand situated in Maharashtra. Alibaug is a black-sand beach which offers the panoramic sight of the Kolaba fort from the shores. Amber sand lies underneath its coarser black counterpart, and its unique sight is further accentuated by the rocks that lazily lie around the entire landscape. The ruins of the fort are clearly visible from the Alibaug beach which can be easily accessed by waddling through the waters in low tides and a short boat ride during high tides. The beach is famous for its picturesque sceneries of sunrise and sunset that one must marvel when in Alibag. It is a great place to spend time in leisure while you marvel at the Arabian sea and landscapes of sunrise, sunset and the silhouette of the Kolaba Fort.

Named after the Alibaug coast, the Alibaug beach is not only popular for its scenic beauty but also for its rich history and many adventure sports activities. You can take a boat ride through the waters of the beach, which overlooks the Colaba Fort in all its glory. An unwavering symbol of all that the Maratha Empire stood for, this historic monument stands strong along the coast even today. The coastline of the beach runs for 4 kilometres along the shores of the Arabian sea and is also a settlement of a few fishing villages, where you can experience the lifestyle and culture of the locals. While here, you can also visit the Ganpati Temple, which is almost 400 years old. Visit the Alibaug Beach to experience its unique shades which range from illustrious history to thrilling activities.
