considered as 3 gems that have become popular havens for Mumbai's
beleaguered fun lovers.
Splendours In Isolation - Marve:Marve is a close village near
Mumbai, which is also called as Borivali. Despite industrialisation one can find that the beauty of Marve is
untouched. It is a best place where you get a taste of colonial splendor and
lifestyle its villas and the fishing village. The hill ranges that frame the
beaches enhance the sunsets and sunrises that one can see from here.
Manori:A little further
away from Marve are the two beautiful beaches called Gorai and Manori, which
are more crowded with travelers and are famous for all night beach parties.
People come to visit Manori especially on the moonlit night. Village folk
make money by serving food and letting their house on rents to the tourists.
HOW TO GET THERE:It is
very easy to reach Marve, which is just 40-km by car from Mumbai. One can alight at Malad
railway station (a suburban station on the Western Railway line) and proceed
by road. A 15-minute ferry ride from Marve or Borivali will take one to
Manori or Gorai. Marve can also be approached by boat.
