Geography & terrain

Diveagar lies on the Konkan coast of the Raigad district in Maharashtra, 165 km from Mumbai and 22 km from Shrivardhan — a quiet beach town of the coast, its long sand and the Suvarna Ganesh temple set among the palm and suru groves.

History & culture

The town's story is the Konkan's fishing and the pilgrimage of the Suvarna Ganesh temple — the idol found in the sea with the legend of the golden lord; the beach's modern role as the coast's family destination, with the town's cashew gardens and the Shrivardhan–Harihareshwar circuit, gives Diveagar its seaside character.
