The best beaches & sights near Amaira, Alibaug

Part of Alibaug’s charm is how much sits within a short drive. Base yourself at Amaira and you can pick a different shore each day.

Alibaug Beach

The town’s storied main shore, with Kolaba Fort rising offshore and horse-carts trotting along the water. Liveliest at sunset. (~25 min)

Kolaba Fort

A 17th-century Maratha sea fort you can walk out to at low tide — history with your toes in the sand. Time it with the tide; we’ll help you check. (~30 min)

Nagaon Beach

A long, casuarina-lined stretch loved for water sports — parasailing, jet-skis — and lazy, salt-air afternoons. (~25 min)

Kihim Beach

Quiet and tree-fringed, famous with birdwatchers and anyone after a softer, slower shore. (~40 min)

Varsoli Beach

Serene and uncrowded — a clean curve of sand made for an unhurried morning walk. (~30 min)

Mandwa Jetty

The scenic gateway for the Mumbai ferry — calm water, big skies, and the easiest way in from the city. (~45 min)
