Guhagar

What people say, in short
Guhagar is a well-liked beach stop on the Konkan coast: commenters call its beaches clean, and a few say it beats Alibaug and the busier beaches nearer Pune. One traveller says homestays are plentiful from Guhagar onwards, and another praises nearby Bagh Beach as a beautiful, private-feeling stretch. The main caveat is the road: a couple of recent drivers say the Chiplun to Guhagar stretch is bad, though one found the Tamhini-Mangaon route as far as Chiplun in good shape. One commenter also notes you won't find water sports here.
