Devbaug Beach
A small peninsular jutting out of the main land Devbaug has the Karli backwaters on one side and the vast blue ocean on the other with the Devbaug sangam at one end. Devbaug is blessed with natural beauty and is covered in coconut palms and lush greenery. An erstwhile fishing hamlet Devbaug now is developing into a tourist destination with a good majority of youth prefering the tourism industry to fishing.
Devbaug has a distinct appeal similar to south Goa with grottos and crosses adorning the quaint hamlet intermittently. The Devbaug beach is a secluded stretch of beach extending from the Devbaug Sangam to Tarkarli and further. The beach for most parts is very clean with white sand and the turquoise blue sea complementing it. The backwaters on one side of Devbaug gives it a completely different feel and makes it a unique beach destination in Maharashtra.
