watch on enemies coming through Arabian Sea. The ancient fort is in
ruins now.
http://datastore.rediff.com/h5000-w5000/thumb/6E6B6D59695B6763655F71/89842ek9gui7t2yp.D.0.183333_185113974859861_100000837807476_381495_7035589_n.jpg
The fort is a tourist place to bring back the memory of Maratha
culture and the golden days of Maratha Rule in this region. The views
of the vast Arabian Sea and the expanse of greenish palm farms from the
Shirgaon fort are really breathtaking.

Beachs in Palghar
Palgar boast of with holding the three spectacular beaches- Shirgaon,
Satpati and Kelva. The beaches are indeed an ideal weekend getaway for
Mumbaikars and they can expect to have a number of beach games, accompanied
with their family and friends.
Lets know a brief about the three cited coastline
Shirgaon Beach
http://datastore.rediff.com/h5000-w5000/thumb/6E6B6D59695B6763655F71/o9u63lmaghhvzm42.D.0.20542561.jpg
Situated about 11 kms from the town Shirajon offers the impressive view of
the Arabian Sea and its nearby Shirgaon village. The place also has the
remains of an 18th century fort that is no more under the catalog of
attraction. Visitors can relax on the beach, have fun with playing cricket
or can interact with the fisher-folk, dwelling on the way. At time boating
is highly opted by the enthusiast water-sport lovers.
Satpati Beach
This beach is not busy like the other two and is often called as the sleepy
hamlet with many palm trees. It is 13 kms away from the main town and very
close to Shirgaon beach. The only activity here is to watch the fishermen’s
boats with their colorful flags, which swings on with the motion of air and
boat.
Kelva Beach
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_UNdHD_YYlZk/R9YEOAGJESI/AAAAAAAAC_U/yVZi7v56KqA/080308_152715-95_Kelva.JPG

Kelva Beach is the most beautiful location for vacations near Palghar.
It has the largest stretch of beautiful cost line of Arabian Sea in
Thane District. The unique feature of the beach is the abundance of the
Suru trees and it is the most sought weekend destination sought by
local populace, domestic visitors from Mumbai and also from other parts
of state.
Kelva fort and Sheetala Devi temple located at the lakeside add
the attraction of the Kelva beach. There are many resorts and
luxurious hotels for the comfortable stay of tourists.

A few thousand Suru trees stand sentinel on Kelve
beach, the largest stretch (about 7 km) of coastline in the region. At
it’s southern end is the Kelve Fort. The Kelve fort is virtually
inaccessible at high tide, which is when it looks most romantic. At low
tide the features of the fort are more discernible. But the climb up the
walls is clearly not for the lily-livered! Boats are available until
sunset for hoisting the adventurous to th roof top via a pulley. Once
ther you find the fort full of undergrowth and appears derelict. While
in Kelva, visit the Shitladevi mandir on the beach. If you still have energy left, head to Kelva dam (10 kms.) Try stop off at Mahim beach
6 kms out on the way to Kelva, which is good for a cursory stroll. But
make sure that Kelve is where you spend most of your morning.
Motivator! – Kelve beach had the most number of visitors on the 31st
of Dec. A crowd of more then 10,000 celebrated the new year here.

When to visit the beaches in Palghar
The best time to visit the Palghar beach in Maharashtra is from April to
May. Besides, visitors can enjoy the scenic beach beauty during Monsoon i.e
from June to September.
Kelva dam
Kelva dam, located at picturesque surroundings, was constructed many
years back as a source for the irrigation in the grass farming of
Palghar. This has been a storage dam of the water in the Kelva dam. The
dam site offer cool and secluded place for evening tours. During
weekends many tourists visit this place. A garden located nearby add the
attraction of the dam site.
Devkop

The hidden beauty Devkop in the hills attracts photographs and picnickers
during the monsoon season. It is situated 12 kms away from Palghar beach and
can be easily accessed by means of local transport facilities. A 10 min trek
along the path offers the several dots of straw huts on one side and the
fields on the other side. Visitors can halt for a while on the vicinity of
the Devkop Lake, surrounded by hills on three sides and casting stunning
reflection on a clear sunny day.
Kaldurg (Palghar)
http://datastore.rediff.com/h5000-w5000/thumb/6E6B6D59695B6763655F71/pm35qs56wtuvbhqe.D.0.12922631.jpg

Kaldurg is very rare trek and hence the route is very dull and has
lots of spots where long grasses are there. You need to be careful at
such spots otherwise you can get lost. After climbing from the forest
for half an hour, we reach a flat small area of black basalt rocks. From
here, face yourself to the Palghar – Manor road, and on the right side,
you can see the Kaldurg’s top. Go ahead on right side and then another
45 mins trek will take you to the top.

Kaldurg trek is good option for those who are willing to do small half
day trek nearby Mumbai city. Even its good for first timers. It will be double fun to do it in monsoon. Its really a
cool place with lots of running waterfalls in monsoon season.
Waghoba Waterfall
This is one of the natual attraction in rainy season.People enjoy showers of  water in holidays. It is approximately 8 k.m. from Palghar station.
Maswan  Dam & Village
http://datastore.rediff.com/h5000-w5000/thumb/6E6B6D59695B6763655F71/vetpw792zu7bhots.D.0.12922248.jpg
Maswan is beautiful village having great culture. Though the village
population is around 2000, the village has supirior infrastructure (i.e
Water, road, communication etc.). The village is surrounded by surya
river on one side and other side by hills. The climate here is extreme

The village is surrounded by adivasi colonies. A neighbouring adivasi village called Kokaner has hot water springs and a Shankar mandir. Likewise, Maswan also has an old Hanuman and Gavdevi mandir.
Maswan gets heavily flooded during the monsoons each year due to its proximity to the dams. The water levels usually rise upto 12 feet and cause large scale destruction to property. The water supplied in the village is also not fit for drinking and has to be extensively boiled. The weather also gets unbearably hot and humid in the summer season. However, Maswan is a visual delight for its scenery and locales.
