Marine Drive :-

Marine drive, Mumbai's pride and joy, sweeps past Churchgate in a crescent shape. A Crowded thoroughfare during the day, it is an equally crowded promenade in the evening when its sparking lights give it the name of 'Queen's Necklace'. One of Mumbai's more memorable sights, this wonderful electric necklace is best seen from the Hanging Gardens.

Juhu Beach:-

Situated at about thirty km from the city on the Bandra-Khar Road, it is a long stretch of sandy beach. Food stalls, Merry-go-rounds and tumble boxes are clustered together at a mid-way point on this sandy strip. This part of the beach, almost deserted on weekdays, always tends to get very crowded on weekends. The sea at Juhu is relatively safe during high tide. Children are entertained with a variety of amusements, like a family of acrobats who perform feats, along with their well-trained dogs. There are also horse and camel rides to enjoy. Vendors ply on the beach calling attention to their wares, which are mostly souvenirs like T-shirts and cute little Indian dolls made from sea shells.

These beaches are unspoilt stretches of golden sand. The sea at Marve and Madh, however, is trecherous in places and it is important to look out for signboards that indicate the dangerous points. Manori and Gorai are easily approachable by ferry. 'Cars may be parked at Marve and thereafter a ten minute ride in a small ferry takes one across to Manori. At the other end, a horse or bullock cart may be hired to go the beach. The sea at Manori is relatively calm. Across Apollo Bunder, by ferry, is Alibaug - a quiet uncrowded beach resort. Most people who visit Alibaug use private cottages or company shacks and bring along a picnic hamper.
