About Shriwardhan Tourism

Located about 200 km from Mumbai, lies the serene and beautiful coastal town of Shriwardhan.  It is an unexplored beach on the Konkan coastline and falls in a bay. This area also has a historical background and was the ancestral home of the Peshwas who ruled Maharashtra. Shriwardhan - Harihareshwar is very popular for its fresh and delicious seafood and for people who want to soak up the sun. 

Sightseeing Highlights:

One of the most attractive features is the beach, which is known for its gentle winds, soft sands and inviting waters. People looking for adventure can take a small boat to the north side of the bay and explore a region where the Peshwas or prime ministers of the Maratha kingdom, originally resided. Other attractions include the Peshwa memorial and the Bankot fort that lie just 4 km away from the beach at a place called Bagmandala. 

Other Activities:

The temple of Lord Harihareshwar is quite famous and gets a lot of devotees. It is well known for Rotha Supari and tourists often shop for it.
