Shriwardhan Experience: Shrivardhan is a quiet weekend location in Konkan. It is 170 Kms from Pune. Driving time 4 hrs.
Food, sight-seeing and shopping: Food is reasonable. Shopping - Nil. The attraction is the beach. In a stretch of 2 kms, there were about 15 people only. At night it is deserted.
Activities & things to do: Stayed at a small resort called Niwant Sagar. Close to the beach. The site is beutiful for relaxing. The rooms need improvement. The location however makes up for that. Food and staff were caring.
