Ganpatipule is the Best Beach near Mumbai. We started at 6 AM from Navi Mumbai and reached ganpatipule at 2 PM. It off the Mumbai-Goa Highway.The Road winds thru the hills the route is scenic.
The Best place to stay in MTDC which is right on the beach. The Service in MTDC requires a lot to be desired, but the location more than compensates for the short fall
The Rooms are very big like any MTDC accommodation. Room server is not available this could be a little uncomfortable as the restaurant is a bit further down.
The Sea View Cottage is the best option with a great view. There are only 4 Sea view cottages and availability is difficult.
If you are adventures type you can try the tent on the beach A/C and non-A/c tents are available. This is right on the beach and lot of Coconut trees to give you shade and gives you a picture perfect location.
The Beach is clean and stretches for 2-3 Kms the water is Greenish Blue. Water sports are available in the back quarters.
The Location is out of the world. Go for it.
We stayed for 3 days could not have enough of it.
