Shrivardhan Beach :-
White sands which spread for miles on either side – that is the beauty of the Shrivardhan beach. The expanse of the sea is a turquoise blue and there usually you will find some college kids playing football in the water. The shores are clean and the water shallow which makes it ideal for swimming.
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
Route Map:-
Will be provided on arrival @ Panvel.
