DAHANU BORDI

Location: Thane District, Maharashtra
Specialty: Chickoo Orchids At Dahanu


An Endless Stretch Of Sand And Surf

Dahanu, a quiet seaside town with a sprawling, uncluttered beach, is located 145-km away from Mumbai in Thane district. Thane District is notable for its vast stretch of unspoilt beach, and the coastline, stretching from Dahanu to Bordi, is 17-km long. Brisk air that blows is a healing salve for pollution-choked lungs. The culture existing is a blend of Irani and Parsi, which makes this place more exotic. The unique feature of Dahanu is the Chickoo (fruit) orchids spread over a large area.

A half-hour's drive down from Dahanu takes the tourists to the village of Bordi where one can find an endless beach, very safe and beautiful. In summers its quite hot though, by day the breeze blows a merry tune.
