The Coast
Everything below sits within the same short stretch of the Konkan. We've given directions rather than travel times, the times depend on the day, and we'd rather not guess.
West
Golden sands & clear waters
The shoreline the road outside runs down to, a long stretch of pale sand with the palms crowding the headland behind it. Calm, clear water, and the reason most people come.
East of the shore
Peaceful. Serene. Timeless.
Where the Karli river meets the sea, the water goes flat and green between low mangrove banks. Jetties, fishing boats, and mornings that barely make a sound.
North-west, offshore
History by the Arabian Sea
A sea fort standing straight out of the water across the bay, its ramparts built to be reached by boat. You see the walls long before you land.
Malvan town, north
Flavours you’ll remember
Coconut, kokum and red chilli, and fish landed that morning. A thali here is pomfret, curry, rice, chapati, solkadhi and papad, and it is the local kitchen, not a restaurant version of it.
