Versova Beach

Amazing, quiet beach. What a difference from crowded Juhu beach. And not that far away. I would choose peace and quiet over crowds and popularity any time. Perfect for sunset watching and walks on the beach.

In my opinion, every beach is serene. Versova beach is no exception. 10 mins walking distance from Versova Metro Station. If walking, avoid going by the slums route (near thorats barbecue misal) because there's a lot of trash and snack stalls are far. Walk a little more and take Persian Darbar's route aka Main Entrance (extra 5-10 mins walking). Sharing rickshaw from the metro station will cost 20rs per person, it will drop you near the main entrance. Kalkhatta Gola is for 50rs, Mix Gola is for 60rs. You can tell the vendor to make a normal Gola to avoid fancy heart shape. You can rent a beach mat for 150rs or sit on the rocks. Don't throw litter, carry your trash out with you and dispose it in a dustbin. Be responsible and enjoy!

A Perfect place to hang out with friends. And usually less busy than Juhu beach. Horse riding and jet skiing is also available sometimes.

I recently visited this beach and was surprised to see it so clean. There is a drive on cleaning Versova beach and the team has done a wonderful job and hope this continue and the public using it ensure that it’s maintain the way it’s now. Keep up the good work !

Don't expect much from this place except calmness. Less crowded compared to other beaches in the morning. It was maintained well. Was able to see the moon set 😅 in the morning, I guess it would be better in the evenings.

Versova Beach is a hidden gem nestled in the bustling city of Mumbai. With its long stretch of golden sand, the beach is perfect for an early morning stroll or winding down after a hectic day. The rhythmic sound of the waves, the cool sea breeze, and the distant call of the fishermen setting out to sea create a serene atmosphere that’s hard to find in a metro city. Top Highlights of this Beach – • Scenic views: Versova’s coastline offers a beautiful sunrise view with the sea reflecting soft pastels. It’s an ideal spot for photographers and nature lovers. • Cleanliness efforts: The beach has come a long way, thanks to regular clean-up drives organized by local volunteers. You’ll often see community members picking up plastic and debris, making the shoreline more enjoyable. • Community vibe: There’s a strong local presence here. Fishermen at work, kids flying kites, and families spending time together give the beach a warm, communal feel. Things to Know: • Crowd levels: Weekends and evenings can get busy, especially during festive seasons. If you prefer tranquility, visiting early in the morning is best. • Facilities: Basic amenities are available public toilets and a few food stalls serving chai, snacks, and seafood. However, don’t expect luxury cafés or upscale eateries. • Safety: The sea can be rough at times. Swim only in designated zones and stay near lifeguard-patrolled areas. The beach is generally safe during daylight hours. My Experience: I visited on a serene weekday morning. The cool breeze, soft sand underfoot, and the sight of fishermen mending nets made it a calming escape. I joined a local clean-up drive, which added meaning to my visit. Though facilities are simple, the real charm lies in the untouched, local ambience. Overall, Versova Beach is a must-visit for anyone looking for a quieter, more authentic Ayurvedic sea-breeze escape in Mumbai. I’d recommend adding your own touch by participating in volunteer activities or simply enjoying a peaceful walk.

I have only visited Versova Beach once and it was an amazing experience. It had more space to walk and enjoy the evening breeze. You could sit on the sides and relax, click pictures and enjoy the waters. There are eateries nearby to fill your tummy. Less crowds is the selling point of the Beach. The only negative aspect was the garbage. The beach was not clean which is the case with all beaches. People should really understand how their actions hurt others experience.

Need to be cleaned, else good place for spending time with your loved ones
