Offbeat Places near Mumbai

Need to get away from the Corona blues? You want to go out, but you're worried about being alone. Don't worry, because, in this blog, we'll tell you about some of the best places near Mumbai that not many people know about, where you can avoid crowds. Also, the sites we talk about in this blog aren't too far from the city, so you can take a safe road trip from Mumbai with your family and friends instead of taking a train or a plane. Read on to find out more

1. Jawhar

Jawhar is a small town in the Western Ghats. It is a great place to escape nature and learn about ancient culture. The Warli people live in this beautiful place. They are known for their Warli paintings. You can also visit the historical Jaivilas Palace, a mix of Indian and Neoclassical styles. Jawhar is in the hills, so many hiking trails, views, and waterfalls are in and around the town.

2. Tamhini Ghat

If you want to go on a bike trip from Mumbai, Tamhini Ghat is a great place to go. It is primarily a road that winds through the Western Ghats. Along the way, you will see several waterfalls, dam reservoirs, valleys, and a lot of greenery. All along, the clouds have been right in front of you! Tamhini Ghat is also one of the best places for couples to visit near Mumbai because of its warm weather and romantic atmosphere.

3. Bhandardara

Bhandardara is the place to go if you want to find waterfalls near Mumbai that will cool you off. In the middle of tall mountains, you can spend as much time as you want on the shores of lakes and in green pastures, listening to the water gushing from high peaks. Another good idea is to hike through the jungle full of plants and animals. When you get tired, go to a lake and splash your face with cool water.

4. Shrivardhan, Divegar, and Harihareshwar

Many people are on the beaches in and around Mumbai, including Alibaug. In this case, you should go to the area between Shrivardhan, Diveagar, and Harihareshwar, which has three beaches, to see the peaceful Konkan coast at its best. Dolphins and turtles, as well as beautiful beaches, lush palms, and a deep blue sea, are some of the things you can see on the beaches.


5.Morachi Chincholi is a place that nobody knows about. It is about 60 km from Pune. Morachi Chincholi is a small eco-village that is close to Mumbai and has something like a peacock sanctuary. It is an excellent place for a one-day trip. It's the perfect place to find peace because so few people know about it. You can see the national bird of India here, as well as babblers, robins, woodpeckers, and parakeets.

6. Sandhan Valley.

Sandhan Valley, also called the Valley of Shadows, is an excellent place for adventure near Mumbai because you can hike, climb rocks, rappel, and cross rivers all in one spot! The best part of this unusual weekend trip from Mumbai is the narrow hiking path, surrounded on both sides by high cliffs. Since there isn't much sunlight reaching the surface, there are always shadows. This is where the name comes from.

7. Purushwadi

Purushwadi is a great place to go on a picnic near Mumbai. You can see stars on earth there. This tiny village at the edge of the Western Ghats is known for how many fireflies gather there to mate, so don't forget to bring your camera. Besides seeing this fantastic show, you can hike in the area, enjoy the slow pace of village life, and do several other fun things.

8. Velas

Velas is a small town on the coast of Maharashtra that is just across the mouth of the Savitri River from Harihareshwar. Velas is different from most other places to visit near Mumbai because it is best known for its turtle festival. Olive Ridley sea turtles come ashore from the Arabian Sea to lay eggs, which they bury in the sand before returning to the sea. During hatching season, when baby turtles come out of their eggs and run to the water, the Turtle Festival is held.

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
