This Diwali 2007 we decided to do something different we ( Anand & I) decided to go to Murud-Janjira 180 kms from Mumbai on our Splendor & Activa respectively.
Route : Mira Road - via Ghodbunder- turn left at the end of Ghodbunder Rd before Flyover - Continue on Thane Bhiwandi Bypass and turn right at Toll plaza for Mumbra bypass- Mumbra - Panvel - turn right at the end of Panvel for NH17 (Mumbai- Goa highway) - Continue upto Vadhkal Naka (25kms) - Go straight from here towards Alibag - Take left just before entering Alibag towards Murud - Continue straight & you will reach Murud.
We set out on Saturday at 4.30am from Mira Road drove through the above route and it was awesome and arrived at 10.30am in Murud. We were put up at Hotel Seaface which faces the beach. The room cost us Rs 700. value for money . Mr. Imran the propreitor can be contacted on Mob:9423377120/ (02144) 274786 .
Checked in and jumped into the sea, swam till 12.30 and then has some awesome fish & beer costs being economical.
Had a great rest till 3.30 & then rode till Rajapur village (2kms). Got into a sailboat; ticket Rs 20 per head & another Rs 20 for a guide for the awesome Janjira fort.
The experience was breathtaking !!!
We strolled on the beach after dinner. What was ridiculous was some mumbaites bursting crackers on the clean beach!!! I can't understand why people want to dirty places!
We left the next day at 10 via the same route and arrived by 4.30 in Mira Road.... A great trip !!!
