Lakes and Beaches
Madh Island beach is one of the most famous beaches of Mumbai. It is essentially a cluster of some old-world fishing villages and farmlands, nestled cozily on the north-west coast of Mumbai. The serene beach is renowned for hosting the most ravishing parties, thrown by the upper strata of the city. Here, people converge and tap their feet on the tunes of the peppy numbers played by the class DJ's. Dotted with sumptuous bungalows, Madh Island Beach can be browsed to get a respite from the crowded city. Owing to strong sea currents, the beach is quite perfidious to move out into the water. Though not recommended for swimming, the beach is apt as an escapade.
Madh Fort built by the Portuguese, is the prime attraction of the beach. Take a stroll along the shoreline and discover the fishermen that inhabit the region. Here, one can find many holiday cottages on top of bungalows. The Church of St. Bonaventure, a Portuguese church that dates back to the 16th century, is another site to visit on the island. To put succinctly, Madh Island Beach is a place that is close to nature and makes a perfect hangout for solitude lover.
