Located just a few minutes away from the Alibag Bus Stand, the Alibaug Beach is a serene and picturesque place. With its golden sand, clear water, and cool sea breeze, the beach is perfect for a lazy stroll or picnics. You can also indulge in some thrilling water sports such as jet skiing, banana rides, and bumper boats with your friends and family.
Located around 13 km away from the Alibaug Beach lies the Kanakeshwar Forest, a perfect place for nature lovers. Known for its lush green surroundings and mesmerizing waterfalls, the forest is a great place for trekking and picnic as well. The hike to the Kanakeshwar Temple located inside the forest is a must-do, which offers the stunning panoramic view of the Alibaug town from the top.
The Kolaba Fort is a 300-year-old historical monument situated on an island just off the coast of Alibaug and is a perfect place for a historic day trip. Built by the Maratha Empire in 1678, the fort houses several temples, a freshwater well, and a few British-era cannons. Take a leisurely walk around the fort as you admire the stunning views of the Arabian Sea.
If you have more time, you can add a visit to the Varsoli Beach, which is known for its scenic beauty and is located close to the Alibag Beach. For those who are religious, a visit to the Vikram Vinayak Temple is also recommended. If you have less time, you can skip the Kanakeshwar Forest and proceed directly to Kolaba Fort. Do carry some snacks and water with you while visiting these places as it can get hot and humid during the day.
