Murud Janjira Beach

One among the popular beaches of Maharashtra, 1.75 km long Murud beach looks like a festooned ornament. The vast expansion of white sandy beach and the crystal clear bluish water Murud is a delight for water enthusiasts. Fenced by the green palm trees, this pristine beach arose the imagination of any visitor.

Though the weather is warm here, the gentle sea breeze cools down the atmosphere. Watching the sun rises through the mountains to the east is a remarkable sight and when the sun rises, the silvery sands began to glow for the whole day. Sunset in the back ground of the brilliant forts are also very fabulous.

A full tide bath in the early morning warm water fill every visitor with a lovely warmth. The languor of the waves, music of the sea, Murud beach offers joyous experience.
