About Ganapatipule Tourism

A quaint little town along the Konkan Coast of Maharashtra, Ganapatipule is a popular beach haven. Legend has it, that Lord Ganapati (a Hindu God), on being offended by a native lady, changed his dwelling from Gule to Pule, and thus the town was named Ganapatipule. It houses the famous Swayambhu Ganapati temple. The drive to Ganapatipule is quite spectacular, lined with beaches, an expanse of palm trees and casuarinas plantations, and small fishing villages.

 

Sightseeing:  

 

Visit the 400-year-old Ganapati Swayambhu Temple, located on the foothill, and an important place of homage. There is an interesting Ganapati-shaped walk of 1km around the hill, which is called Pradakshina, a way of respect shown

Overview of the destination
This is an amazing destination if you enjoy the beach and scenic beauty. Still unspolit by commercialization. The route to this place is also wonderful.Food, sight-seeing and shopping
Didn't go to many places.. but could easily spend 4 days at the MTDC konkani huts.Activities & things to do
Parasailing.. which is at a nearby village.. Mulund is an excellent activity. We went in the mango season and being big fans of Mangoes.. enjoyedTravel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc.
Would suggest to travel by road... personal vehicle is the best as it gives you the option to stop anywhere and explore the surrounding area.
