Kashid Beach
Kashid Beach is often called the "Mini Goa" of the Konkan coast due to its stunning white sands and clear blue waters. It is located about 30 KM away from Alibaug along the scenic coastal road. The beach is stretched across 3 Kilometers and is tucked between two rocky hillocks, creating a picturesq ue bay-like appearance. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the region because it offers a perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. The shoreline is lined with tall Casuarina trees that provide plenty of shade for tourists. Unlike other beaches in the area, the sand here is particularly fine and light-colored. The beach is famous for its high waves, which makes it an exciting spot for water sports but requires caution for swimmers. It is a bustling place on weekends with many shacks serving fresh fish and coconut water.
