Kihim - Alibaug

-
Kihim is a quaint fishing village located to the north of Alibaug.

This is the resort we stayed in.




We chose Kihim because Alibaug would be very crowded during May time.

Both the beaches have camel, horse rides and ATVs to drive.


The Alibaug Fort is in the middle of the water so you will have to take a horse carriage or boat depending on the tide.

Sai Inn

Food
There are small roadside or beach shacks serving fresh sea food. This is quite cheap as compared to Bombay.

On the way to and from Alibaug you will find a lot of mango, onion and jamun sellers.

P.S- Choose any hotel for staying but savour authentic local cuisine(restaurant food at good hotels tastes the same whereever you go) .

 Directions
Kihim is 2 and a half hours away from Bombay according to Google maps but when I went it took me 5 and a half hours to reach Kihim because there was a major traffic jam. Coming back took me 4 hours.

MAP

Sai Inn Holiday Resort (Chondi village) is 10 minutes by car from Kihim Beach.

 Kihim

Kihim to Alibaug proper is 30 minutes by car.

2 days and 1 night is more than enough to see Alibaug.

HAPPY TRAVELLING !!!

Army major pays final respects to martyred husband with her 5 day old baby

M ajor Kumud Dogra, donning her crisp uniform, marches forward. This is perhaps of one of the saddest moments of her life – as she pays homage to her martyred husband, IAF pilot Wing Commander Dushyant Vats who was killed in a microlight helicopter crash in Assam. But she isn’t alone. Bundled in her arms is her 5-day baby, one who never had the chance to see her father alive. This picture of Major Kumud Dogra, walking to her husband’s funeral with her baby in her arms. It is difficult to imagine how one can have the courage to shield themselves and not break down in the final moments of losing their dear ones. The courage, resilience and indomitable spirit of the army woman, while bidding her husband goodbye, has inspired many. h ttps://www.thebetterindia.com/132396/army-martyr-husband-newborn/

Part 2 - Around Goa in 72 hours

Baga Beach in the night was a treat for the eyes. I had come to the same place 9 years ago and it definitely has made a lot of improvement. The shacks are better and have expanded their area and influence onto the sands. Every shack has around 25 to 30 candle lit tables out on the sand with these low lying chairs overlooking the water and LED lights the same colour of their shacks so you know which place you’re eating at. I wanted to see Goa nightlife and I got it. The only problem was the music. It was way too loud. Every shack had a dance floor with each DJ trying to show the other guy that his set was better and speakers louder. So by the end of just 15 mins you wouldn’t really know what song you were listening to. So go eat a shack if you want to just eat and dance (and not talk, it’s useless; you wouldn’t be able to hear anything) otherwise walk on Tito’s lane for the normal restaurants. Tito’s lane is the life of Baga after the beach. That’s where all the clubs are.
