| 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 destinationThis 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.. enjoyed Travel 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. | sanjay, Mumbai | 12th May 2008 what a beach -Ganpatipule crystal clear blue water with lovley Its location is wonderful at one far end off the mumbai goa highway where the | | Read full review... | shankar, Mumbai | 26th April 2008 Beach, beer and a 5km walk Ganpatipule offers the best of two extreme worlds: a religious spiritual experience and a hedonistic | | Read full review... |
