Question 1

Which popular attractions are close to Kashid Beach Resort?

Accepted Answer

Phansad Wildlife Sanctuary:  Once a royal hunting reserve, the Phansad region has now been converted into a Wildlife Sanctuary to preserve the local wildlife. Phansad is home to various animal and bird species, including the critically endangered white-rumped vulture. The Sanctuary features several campsites, while safaris are a possibility as well. Korlai Fort:﻿ Dating back to the days of Portuguese occupation, the Korlai Fort dominates the skyline of Alibaug. Today, a few remnants of the original fortification stand intact- only some plaques, bits of a Church, and the four outer walls of the Fortress are all that survive. The hike to the Korlai Fort is an extremely pleasing one. Commanding uninterrupted views of the Arabian Sea, the Korlai Fort is known to offer excellent views of the sunset as well. Revdanda Beach Fort: Built in the 16th century, this tattered Portuguese Fort stands testament to the city’s turbulent military past. All that survives of the original structure today are a few bastions and walls. Nevertheless, the picturesque landscapes in the Fort area make it worth a visit. The black sand beach adjacent to Revdanda Fort only adds to the charm of the place. Murud Janjira Fort: Located along the coast of Murud, this 16th-century fortress is a dominating figure spread across the Alibaug skyline. The fortress is located right in the middle of the ocean, and can only be accessed by boat. Unlike most ancient forts in Alibaug, Murud Janjira has most of its fortifications intact with a few ruins inside.
