If you like Konkan Coast, you might also enjoy these destinations.
Find Konkan Coast trips departing from your city.
Expect narrow, winding coastal roads, untouched beaches with white and black sand, ferry crossings with your car, zero commercial nightlife, and homestays run by warm locals. You'll be eating a lot of Malvani and Konkani food, drinking endless glasses of Sol Kadhi, and dealing with patchy mobile networks. It's slow travel at its finest.
The best way is via the Konkan Railway (get off at Kudal, Ratnagiri, or Chiplun) which is incredibly scenic. By road, the Mumbai-Goa Highway (NH66) is the fastest, but the coastal road (MSH4) is the most beautiful. Driving from Mumbai or Pune takes anywhere from 4 to 10 hours depending on your exact coastal destination.
Always, always pre-order your meals at homestays at least 3-4 hours in advance. They buy seafood fresh off the boats based on daily guest orders.
