Geography & terrain
Guhagar lies on the Konkan coast of the Ratnagiri district in Maharashtra, 120 km from Ratnagiri and 260 km from Mumbai — the beach town of the coast, its long sand and the coconut groves set at the mouth of the Vashishti's country.
History & culture
The town's story runs with the Konkan's fishing and the region's history of the Dabhol country — the old port era of the Vashishti's mouth and the local chieftains' tales; the beach's modern role as the coast's quiet family destination, with the town's temple and the mango gardens of the region, gives Guhagar its unhurried coastal character.
