Geography & terrain
Devka beach lies on the coast of Nani Daman in the union territory of Daman, 4 km from the town centre — a wide sea beach of the Gulf of Khambhat side, its long sand and the river-mouth edges set near the Portuguese-era town.
History & culture
The coast's sandy shore long served the fishing villages and the seaside walks of the Daman enclave; its modern story is the family-beach of the territory — the renamed promenade, the seaside rides and the sunset boardwalk of the holiday-makers.
