	Monsoon Ideas
	Unspoiled beaches, stretches of golden sand, crystal clear waters…welcome to Ganapatipule! A sleepy hamlet on the marvelous Konkan coastline, Ganapatipule is a rejuvenating experience. Not just serene, the place is one of the holiest cities in Maharashtra, home to the self-formed idol of Lord Ganapati. The beaches of Ganapatipule are inviting throughout the year, but they turn more appealing during the monsoons. The downpours make the waves turn foamy and the surroundings turn an extremely alluring green. A drive down the Western Ghats during monsoons can be an experience of a lifetime.
