In the autumn, it can be reached by wading through waist-deep water at low tide, however, at high tide, boats must be used to reach it. The are two big doors at front and backside for entering the fort. The eastern door is known as Mahadarwaja (door), and the southern door is known as Darya/Yashwant/Dhakata darwaja. There is a popular Ganesh Temple (Mandir) inside the fort.

I would like to book a homestay by the beach anywhere close to mumbai.. would appreciate your help. I'm not looking at anything too expensive. I would like a nice rustic, but comfortable homestay which will also provide seafood meals. I have tried your numbers but both are not functioning.
