Kihim Beach (143 Km)

The best thing about Kihim Beach is how quiet it is. A close second is that the beachfront is lined with tons of greenery making the golden sands cold enough to walk without your sandals. So head to the Kihim beach to avoid the worst part about beaches. Getting super, super tanned, and having to tap dance your way to the waters for a swim, that is.

Alibaug Beach (143 Km)

The Alibaugh beach is perfect for people who prefer sitting near the shore with calmer waves and without any loud tourist video-calling their relatives and screaming their lungs out. The tourists obviously don’t appreciate how the black sands of these beaches add to the uniqueness of this place. And gives off a vibe that can only be justified on film by Youtube travel vloggers like Sam Kolder and Co.

Mandwa Beach (151 Km)

Mandwa Beach offers calm waters and a pleasant climate. And to reach this tranquil beach, you’ll need to drive across the splendid Western Ghats. Meaning, whenever you travel to Mandwa Beach, you’ll get to explore both hills and beaches. In short, making your way to this beach with your gang might be the closest you can come to experience a ride through the opening credits of a feel-good movie.

Murud Beach (158 Km)

Few places are as magnificent as the Murud Beach in Raigad. And nope, we’re not only talking about the beach. But also about the iconic Murud Janjira fort located in the middle of the Arabian Sea. Yup, believe it or not, the tiny island fort is surrounded by water on all sides. Now, we don’t know why it was built like that, but those who’ve played Age of Empires back in their childhood would know it’s easier to defend a fort from a couple of naval troops than infinite land armies. So maybe that’s it.

Diveagar Beach (162 Km)

If you’re someone who’s searching for an offbeat weekend getaway, then look no further than Diveagar Beach. The scenic beach extends for a long stretch along the coastline of the Raigad district and it’s less crowded at all times of the year. And even with this humongous amount of zen at this place, we wonder why some influencers cum self-proclaimed therapists haven’t started ‘positivity retreats’ to this place yet. Doesn’t matter tho, cuz that’s just another reason for you to visit this place asap before they do.

Kashid Beach (170 Km)

Another one of the top beaches in Pune is Kashid Beach. The white sand beach is surrounded by the wide blue sea on one side and casuarina groves on the other. And at a short distance, it has the Korlai Fort lighthouse that gives off a vibe like Rob Pattinson’s Lighthouse. Though, unlike the movie, the gorgeous view atop the lighthouse will make you go insane for all the right reasons.

Dapoli Beach (196 Km)

Located along the Konkan Coast, Dapoli beach is the perfect camping destination for your squad. Come here to forget all your worries by going swimming in the day and doing a bit of soul-searching sitting beside the campfire at night. And oh, we forgot to mention, you might witness a couple of dolphins here too. But nope, they won’t dance and kiss you in your mouth like those Youtube videos. Just some wild, wild dolphins who won’t even care that you exist.

Velas Beach (197 Km)

Last but not least, we’ve got Velas Beach. Even though it’s the farthest beach from Pune on our list, the awe-inspiring views from this place will make your journey worthwhile. One of the views is actually not of the horizon, but that of a large bale of sea turtles inching their way up the sand. Slowly. Lazily. Almost as easy-going as how you feel when you’re at the beach.
