Geography & terrain

Kashid lies on the Konkan coast of the Raigad district in Maharashtra, 110 km from Mumbai and 50 km from Murud — the clean beach town of the coast, its white sand, the casuarina lines and the sea views set on the Murud's country.

History & culture

The beach's story runs with the coast's resort life — the modern growth of the clean-sand beach of the Raigad country, with the beach's role in the Mumbai weekend circuit and the resort development of the sand; the beach's link to the Janjira fort's sea and the Murud town's history, with the coast's quiet lanes, gives Kashid its clean-beach character.
