We started from the Mumbai today. We done breakfast after Panvel on Panvel-Goa highway and our first destination was Revdanda beach. Here we spend time for capturing photos and videos. we reached at Murud at afternoon and we stopped here for our lunch at Patil khanaval on murud beach side road.
After lunch we leaved murud and after 4 km we saw mesmerizing view of Janjira fort.
Then we gone towards our first jetty dighi jetty where we take our bike on jetty and crossed the river, here we spend 40 rupees for bike and 10 rupees for each person. After crossing the river the road was awesome just side by side of beach or sea. I lived this road, we stopped lot of time to take pictures and the feeling on this road was awesome. The road was not pretty good but because of the scenic views we forget about road conditions. But we tired for the speed breakers on the roads. Actually my plan was to stay today in harnai beach and do some street photography of market on beach. But if plan go as per our plan then how the trip will be. We actually reached at Shrivardhan beach at sunset. So we decided to take first stay in Harihareshwar. Here we stayed at Vandana homestay in 800 rupees. And had dinner at one hotel and we ate prawns and promplet thali of 660 rupees.

Here we start from mumbai....

Day 2

Good morning..!! Day 2 of trip.

We woke up at 6.30 am and refreshed and take a bath then went to the temple. We take tea on the road of temple and take blessings from the god. The Harihareshwar temple is old temple not new building but Shivlinga was so nice. Then we went for the beach from the temple. There was road from the backside of temple and there is small hill to climb actually there were steps made. Some kind of forest like appearance on hill then we saw the rocky beach where way made by cutting hill and made valley to go the beach. It was just awesome route to go on beach. The beach was completely rocky and beautiful. We reached at sunrise we got beautiful view of the beach.
Then we came again front of the temple by walking on that rocky beach then we saw beautiful sandy beach from side. We did breakfast in one hotel on the way of temple and came to room.
We packed our all stuffs and baggage then fasten on bike again. It was difficult task on trip. We went for our second jetty from Hariharehshwar. The jetty was just 7 to 8 km from there. We reached there and we got jetty instantly there was no need to wait. We drive our bike on jetty and after 10 min jetty started. Here we spend about 50 rupees for bike and us. We reached other side of Bankot jetty. After that jestty moving forward we saw one beautiful beach where way go inside the sea ans there was small island of rocks but the road was awesome. We take our bike there and shoot videos and photos. Where our bike at middle and sea at both of side.
Then On the road we saw one house which was so beautiful, typical kokani house so we stopped there and take some pictures and make some conversation with the owner of house. He was very kind person do his farming there also has coconut, mango trees behind the house.
Then moved towards our next destination Harnai. We reached there at 11 am. The market of beach was closing that time. But we get some time to send there and take photos. Here fish market open on beach directly and auction takes place in morning and evening. We spend here lot of time and then went for the lunch. There was one hotel outside the harnai village. We ate fish here also because harnai is famous for fish. Here we spend about 700 rupees on food. It was already 2 pm and we were late. We started towards next destination and there was another one jetty on road after 40 km and after that another one after about 20 km from there. We reached there there at 4 pm at Dabhol jetty. Then we reached at Guhagar take break for the tea. There was no any petrol pump on the road so I was little worried about it. Cause my bike was already on reserver and next petrol pump was 35 km from Guhagar at Jaigad. Guhagar is also best destination for the vacation it has very clean sea and beach, white sand and clear water. Not more crowded very silent and beautiful. We didn't stop there on beach but I know there was one place from which we can sea best view of beach. So we went from Guhagar and reached that place it was on mountain on the road towards Jaigad. The road was made half of the way after that full off roads started. After that mountain and off-road directly show us another side beach. There was road side by side beach. We reached at Jaigad jetty at 6 pm. After we reach another side i asked people's for petrol pump first. Just side the petrol pump was present we full our tank and gone toward Jaigad fort. It was small for made for keep watch on sea. We spend time there just for peace and rest. Then again moved towards Ganapatipule. In the starting of the Ganapatipule we saw one hotel and go to ask rates . But rates was little high so we checked on OYO and got one hotel just side of that hotel in just 450 rupees. We go there and refreshed and keep all baggage in room and took bath. Then we went to Temple of Ganesh ji. Where we reached at Aarti time it was best moment. Then again came to room and took rest and had dinner.
