Devbag Beach via Tarkarli

Sunday, March 16, 2014

The next morning we boarded the green color mini bus to Devbag Beach via Tarkarli.

This bus is full of locals and it travels along the border so we can view the seashore as we travel.

Boat ride t see  the confluence of the sea and river Kurli

 Many people have setup hotels to gain tourist attention, though there are houses of fishermen too on the beach.

In around 30 minutes time we were at Devbag Beach Mobor. This doesn’t have a good stretch of the beach. From here we took a boat ride at a cost of Rs.300 to see Bhogave Beach, the confluence of the sea and river Kurli.

The rising waves, is the place where the conmfluence happens

Bhogave beach is beautiful. Not a soul on the beach, it reminded me of Tom Hanks in movie. I forgot the name of the movie, let me recollect. Ha, Outcast

The confluence was also nice, the waves rose so high that I almost got wet in the boat.

We then headed back to the bus top to board the same bus on its way back to Malvan ST bus depot. The conductor alighted us at Tarkarli Beach near the MTDC resorts.

Beautiful hillside on the other side of River Kurli 

This beach is clean, clean white sands with green waters lashing on the shore, not many people here. We decided to walk on the shore, meaning I walked on the sand and Hithakshi walked in the waters.

Frankly speaking all the beaches look the same; it’s just us people who have given it different names.

Tarkarli Beach

We saw a few malnourished camels on the beach. If an obese person would happen to sit on them they would collapse.

Devbag beach and Tarkarli Beach are  a must for all travelers.

We then headed off to Malvan again.

Malvan Beach in Malvan

Monday, February 24, 2014

Standing on the Malvan Jetty gave me an amazing view of the land and the sea.

The Sindhudurg Fort parked itself in a distance clearly visible to my naked eye. The Front of the fort was so wide; I could gauge how big the fort actually was standing at the Jetty.

Malvan Beach was very colorful. Photos shot here are good enough to be kept as desktop wallpapers. 

Beautiful view of Malvan Beach. 

 The beach had white sand with green waters lashing on it. I missed the heavy rush of water gushing on the shores here. This place was like a haven for fishing boats. They were parked both on the white sands and the green waters of the sea . The white sands were covered with coconut trees so dense that I could hardly see through it.

The seas were very clear as I managed to see the bottom of the sea. A few rocky patches too could be seen in the sea. What I liked most is the color of the water in the sea. The green colored water was very refreshing to my eyes. It was basically because of the vegetation.  

Another view of Malvan Beach

There is a jetty erected on the Malvan Beach, boats plying to Sindhudurg Fort ply from here.

In the evening this place is packed with people, who come to see the sun setting in the waters, boys playing volleyball on the beach and the local fishermen pulling their boats out of the water after a hard day’s work. 

View of the massive Sindhudurg Fort from Malvan

Standing at the jetty gave me a commanding view of the sea and the land. I almost thought as if I was a General here looking after the territory I had. Imagining I had the fort, the sea and the land in my kitty.

But that was my imagination but the reality is that this place is truly beautiful. Do come here in the evening to spend it with the sea.
