MUST READ BEFORE GOING. First, the beach is very near to Mandwa jetty. So it makes sense to go by ferry. It is also quite near to Alibag so driving also makes sense for those staying in suburbs or Navi Mumbai. The Beach is nicely lined with palm trees and there are seating benches below the trees which makes the sight quite wonderful. But the beach has black sand and in the evening the water is still like 100 m away from the beach which exposes the black sand covered in seawater. It is like mud which spoils the mood and the photograph. There are also rocks in between but when I went there they were inside the water and only top of these rocks were exposed since the water wasn’t receded that far. So if you’re looking for a perfect isolated beach, this beach is isolated but not perfect. There are couple of other beaches that I know which are isolated and perfect. 1) There is one Beach on the Nagaon stretch. 7-8 Gallis leaving Nagaon. Even on Sundays you won’t find any crowd there. This is an extended stretch of beach and this away from Main crowd of Nagaon. 2) Another isolated and perfect beach is Nandgaon beach. Please mind the name it is Nandgaon and not Nagaon. This beach is 5 km Before Murud Janjira Beach so it’s 1 1/2 hours drive from Alibag itself. But you can definitely get a better deal with a picturesque beach and good home stays. I had high hopes from Awas but was disappointed due to black sand.

One of the best beaches in Alibaug. Its humongous with clean and clear water and less tourists. Not usually crowded like kihim or alibaug as its not easily accessible and takes around 15-20min from Awas Phata with narrow roads which are in very bad shape at the moment. Its bigger than alibaug city beach. Parking is limited for 4wheeler but u can drive right upto the beach itself. Highly recommended for people who want to skip the crowds and enjoy nature at its best👍 **Dont forget to visit Siddheshwar Temple enroute which will be to the right while coming from Awas Phata.

Very clean and the number of people at the beach is also quite less which is good. No vendors nearby which is the reason it is super clean. There are lots of trees and benches just before the beach starts so you can also some and sit there during the day. We liked it

Amazing beach. Offbeat place near alibaug

Beautiful pristine stretch of sandy beach ⛱️. Perhaps one of the widest that I have seen. The sand is so soft that it feels like we are walking on a blanket of candy floss. 🌊 This beach felt like paradise. The horizon seemed to be stitched onto the gentle bobbing waves. When in Alibag, this beach is a must visit!

Clean beach, parking available near beach. No food stalls near by beach.

The beach was not crowded. Since it was cloudy the day we went, we enjoyed some good breeze without the hot sun burning down on us! It was peaceful and we got to see some birds like sea gulls and sandpipers. Those were the good points. However, the sand of the beach seemed to have some oil residue, hence we did not venture into the waters nor did we sit in the sand. There was plastic litter too. Since it was rainy, there were too many greenhouse millipedes along the entrance walls, trees, benches and parking area. It was quite saddening to see a beautiful beach getting slowly destroyed by pollution and negligence. :(

Had a pleasant family time at this beautiful and clean beach in Alibagh. Definitely recommend.

Most peaceful beach at alibaug Clean and less crowded and views best when sun is at dawn One should always visit this beach in alibaug rather than kihim and nagaon beach. It doesn't have any food option or water sports but you can have a quality time here with your friends and family.

Nice and clean beach. Go there if u just wanna relax with family and kids.

Nothing only see the beach and sunset, no hokers, no stalls, no entertainment

Very less crowd good for photography

Serene, Quiet and Scenic Reaching Awas Beach was quite easy on Google maps. The road is resplendent with typical Konkan styled huts and homes. The road is quite snaky, with twists and turns. There are some temples enroute and recommend to stop at nageshwar temple. The temple is clean and offers peace to one who visits. Once you reach the beach , you will find that it is quite flat and during low tides, it offers quite a space to play beach games. We played a cricket match of 10 overs to each side, and it was quite enjoyable. Not many frequent this place and hence does not have any eateries or people offering snacks or coconut water. So stack up and go. The place is very peaceful and quiet. The beach is very vast and hence it kind of offers you an own space and no one interferes with the others, (as though an unwritten rule). If you have time, you can sit on some of rocks at the end of the shore and can catch some gulls fishing. It is quite a patient wait but once you spot one catch, you will find it is worth the wait. Do visit, if you want to have some peaceful fun.

Very clean beach And less crowded Near By madwa jetty terminal.......

Beautiful

Serene and superbly clean beach. Best place to enjoy with friends and family. Sunset seems just beautiful from here.

Love this beach more than other beaches It is clean but i like the scenary the most

The Simplicity in this place is wow!! This beach is unpopular beach in alibaug and because of it there is no crowd. So its great to enjoy there is garden for kids, sitting area ,greenary and peace. If your planning to visit this place then keep this as reminder that there is no food stalls over there so you have to carry your foods on your way.

The best beach in Alibag 😍 Limited snacks options near the beach.. less crowded..

Very good place for picnic with family friends..... hotels and stay is available also very good food available

Clean and silent beach great place to hang out with family or friends upto beach you can drive ur car has parking area there , lots of coconut trees surrounded over the beach single lane road to rach there , not so crowed ,romantic and photo genic place in evening , But one thing to menstion Hindu Cemetery is just beside the beach that's why many people avoid or frightened to visit during night.

Peaceful beach among all beaches from alibag Close to mandwa jetty Accessible from bus, auto or ferry boat Rooms are available near the beach ( not beach touch ) The parking lot is there The washroom and bathroom are cleaned

Awas Beach as you say is a hidden gem on the coast of raigad. The beach is not at all crowded. I visited the beach on Saturday. But even the Weekend the Beach was clear like only 10-15 people were there on the beach. The cleanliness of the beach excited me a lot. As You can in the video the beach is very calm and not at all surrounded by people. The stays also near the beach are high-rated. It was a very nice experience visiting the beach. Awas Beach is a serene and picturesque coastal paradise located in Alibag, a popular beach destination in the Raigad district of Maharashtra, India. Situated approximately 7 kilometers from Alibag town, Awas Beach is a hidden gem known for its pristine shoreline, golden sands, and tranquil atmosphere. One of the key attractions of Awas Beach is its relatively less crowded and unspoiled nature, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful and relaxing escape from the city's hustle and bustle. The beach is surrounded by lush greenery and coconut palms, adding to its natural charm and providing ample shade for visitors to unwind and bask in the serenity. Awas Beach offers the perfect setting for long walks along the shore, where you can feel the soft sand beneath your feet and enjoy the gentle sea breeze. The tranquil waters are safe for swimming, making it a great spot for water enthusiasts. While the beach does not have commercial activities like water sports, it is perfect for leisurely sunbathing, reading a book under the shade of trees, or simply gazing at the vast expanse of the Arabian Sea. The mesmerizing sunset views are a sight to behold, casting a golden glow over the horizon and creating a magical ambiance. Awas Beach is a destination that invites visitors to embrace the beauty of nature and rejuvenate their senses, making it a must-visit place for travelers seeking a serene and offbeat coastal experience in Alibag.

Amazing location, food is a challenge so carry it along but it is so peaceful and relaxing. Not many people know of this place hence it makes the time worth enjoying with your family.

A clean beach, less popular as compared to other beaches in the vicinity, and hence less crowded. If you'd like to stay away from crowds and enjoy a relaxing time without the humdrum of human noises, this is the place to visit. There are no shacks, stalls or any water sport activities here. On a clear day, you can even spot the south Mumbai skyline, which is about 15 kms across the sea, in the northwest direction.

Crowded place. Enough space for parking. You can spend a relaxing time here. Trees near the beach are getting chopped day by day which is disturbing. You can see Mumbai coastal part from this beach.

Good and clean beach, but issue is bit stoney beach and not very safe... Still its serene and eyesoothing.

I just loved this beach! A clean and crowd free beach in Alibaug. A must visit if you are around Mandwa. But please don't litter here if you are visiting. Please keep the beach as it is. Check more places on @say_day_out

Need to maintain more... Proper entry to the beach should be made.. and stop tourist from throwing packets and bottles.

Best place to have fun and relaxing

Perfect beach for peaceful environment..

Long and clean

The most cleanest beach in Alibaug. Not much crowded, decent crowd. Love this beach. Sunset view is amazing from this beach.

Clean beach without the crowd. Worth a visit, if all you want to do is enjoy the sea with your family and no nuisance of vendors.

Clean & beautiful, best sunset view

Very clean beach. Nice place for family get togethers

Quiet beach

Big , long, clean

Very clean and less crowded beach

Gem of Alibag .... Cool, Silent Only problem is that no food stalls are available in nearby area so bring your food. Few hotels are available 2-3 kms away from beach.

Good place to go if you're looking for a secluded beach

If you like to get away from the crowd on a serene clean beach, Awas beach is the right place to be. There is a small parking area good enough for 8 to 10 cars. Some benches are placed along the beach to watch the sun go down or just relax after a long walk on the beautiful beach. No hawkers or vendors so if you plan for a small picnic do carry your own snacks but remember to take away your garbage and maintain the cleanliness of the place. Unlike other reviewers complaining there was no oil spills or anything od that during my visit. Though this place seems popular for pre-wedding shoots (obviously due it's romantic feel).

Very beautiful and one of the less crowded beach of Alibaug. On the downside there are not too many water activity options available here. There is ample car parking space and a small kids play area under the trees near the beach.

Good beach with less crowd and clean water .. we put a tent here and did a barbecue ..

One of the explored beach of Alibag. There are very less crowd and no sport activities. One can enjoy the beach vibes here. Just sit on bench and enjoy the wind.

It is very beautiful beach 🏖️ If you want to enjoy very less crowdy beach in Alibaug you will definitely need to visit this place. Seashore is very big and you can enjoy during evening time. Food stalls and transportation facilities are not available you can reach here with your own vehicle.

Less crowded compared to other beach in alibaug.. Nice serene place.. one can enjoy the outing ..

Awesome place. Perfect for a nice long weekend with friends and family

One of the best beaches in Konkan. Peace everywhere!!!

Very nice beach

Its one of the beautiful beaches in Alibag. The unique group of trees looks so awesome and makes it different than other beaches. You can visit it while visiting Kanakeshwar Devsthan as its very near to it.

A really clean beach with minimal human presence. Very wide and fun to walk

Good place for family trip

The beach is a lot cleaner than others like alibag, kihim or nagaon. There are a lot of Casuarina(Suru in Marathi) trees which makes the surrounding very pretty. The beach is also comparatively less crowded. If you want to escape the crowds you can walk towards north and cross a small stream to reach the other side (ensure that you do this at low tide, we crossed when the water was hardly above our ankles but just an hour or so later the water level rose to mid thighs). The waves are strong and not really ideal for swimming and the water is not than clean, so we avoided it. There are benches set up facing the beach so its a good spot for catching sunset. Washroom facility was also available for without any charges. There is space to park your car and we were not charged any parking fees.

Neat and clean not much crowded as compared to other beachs in alibaug

Only reason of Rating this beach is Peaceful place unlike Kashid beach as it's not a commercial one but you'll find very few people around. Good place for Pre-wedding Shoot, couples privacy, Good for sports activity and Morning Walk. If you have your own vehicle then no worries otherwise reserve an auto in advance for timely pickup and drop as you won't find any auto rickshaw or other public transport.

This could easily be the most clean,serene,least crowded beach of alibaug.Visited early morning,hardly a dozen people on the beach,mostly locals playing football.There aren’t many accommodation options along the way to this beach,seems less popular than the others,hence less humans and less trash!!!

Very good beach. Wasn't crowded so had a good time.. Could have been a lot nicer if it was keep free of garbage

This beach is wide, clean, calm and backed by coconut trees. Nice and isolated which makes it a great place to relax and enjoy majestic view of this beach.

The place is so serene and had the best sunset view.

Visited this beach last week. It is not a very popular beach so its quiet and has no vendors, water sports etc. If you want peace and quiet, this is the beach to go to. When we visited, there was just 1 more family and a tonga - no one else. We strolled on the beach for some time and headed back. This beach was a welcome change from the normal beaches which are generally very crowded.

Loved it.. quite and clean beach.. carry your own food as nothing is there.. shop having snacks, biscuits, water is there..

A super clean beach.

Peaceful.

Very clean and calm beach.

Less crowded beach with beautiful views.

Peaceful beach near Mandwa, Alibagh.. Very clean beach.. Best beach to visit

Best

It is clean and the beach made for visitors. The pics are best memory

Peaceful, quite and socially Distanced beach. It was relatively cleaner.

I was the only human being with lakes of small crabs. Absolutely peaceful .

Pristine as ever

One of the most cleanest beach in Alibag. We went on a week day and literally at the entire beach to ourselves. It's peaceful and safe for swimming. Even the villagers are helpful .... A must visit for nature lovers.

Secluded, flat and clean.

One of the best beaches in Alibag. Access road is an issue but it’s worth. Very nice, peaceful, long beach. You can see crabs, birds. Perfect for kids.

Nice place, always clean

This beach is so peaceful.

Nice clean beach.

Clean and calm. Good beach for family

One and only key highlight of our 3 days trip to alibag. This is biggest and most beautiful beach in alibag region. Zero commercial activity and very limited people,you can enjoy the sunset with almost clean and clear looking sand. If you do visit please bring your water/food as there are no vendors and don't litter,it's just a request to leave this beach beautiful for someone else as well. Don't want this beach to turn into something like alibag .

Clean n safe shore...Slightly crowded n parking would be tedious but still managable

A place for peace without any other people disturbance. Fully silent beach no one available to roam

Not good

Best place to visit with family or friends
