Madh Island - In and Around Mumbai

Well this was supposed to be a half a day plan. Not exactly planned but was more impulsive outing. We went to Madh Island by ferry from Versova. Well I thought it would be atleast 15 min by ferry but the distance in water was covered in less than 5 mins. So much for ferry and it felt so close I could just swin across :)

Once we reached Madh Jetty - We took an auto to go visit the Madh Fort which is now Airforce land and is restricted. We got entry because some shooting was happening. We clicked few pics and walked out to see a board to a temple - Mukuteshwar Mahadev Mandir. Our curiosity got better of us and that led us to the sea where we could see the backside of the fort and Mumbai Skyline on the other end.

We walked back to Madh Beach and visited few churches. Took the bus to Malad (#271 to Malad and #269 to Borivili). This bus covered entire sea shore covering Erangal, Daana Paani, Aksa and Marve beaches. The bus is pretty frequent. Get down at Link road and you will get buses to all parts of Mumbai or you can go to Malad Station/Borivali Station to get back home.
