Overview

Ganapatipule is located on the Southern Konkan coast at a distance of 375 kms south of Mumbai. Ganapatipule has several kilometers of almost perfect beaches and clean waters. The tourists do not come here for the hedonism of sun and sand but rather for the towns seaside temple with its Swayambhu Ganapati, or "naturally formed" monolith Ganesh, discovered 1600 years ago. Ganpatipule is one amongt the "Ashta Ganapatis" (eight Ganpatis) in India and is known as the "Paschim Dwar-Dewata". The Ganesh Temple is framed by a green hillock on one side and golden sand and open sea on the other. The sunset here is especially beautiful, spilling its rich orange and gold over the gentle, white – fringed waves, a celebrated picture framed from the shore by coconut palms. The temple is serene, the sea calm, and the red soil of the hills warms your heart. It is easy to see why Ganapati is the lord of pule, or sands.
