Govalkot – Maldoli Backwater :- Famous for Crocodile Safari (one can see the rare salt water crocodile in a natural habitat).
This village is situated on the bank of Vashishti river which gives you a feeling of being in Kerala. The small small villages on the banks of this river the picturesque nature the small islands in the back waters of the river, the peaceful climate far away from the noisy cities, the silent flowing water, soothing climate makes you forget the entire remaining world. But nowadays the tourists are more attracted to see the crocodiles in the river.
Many year before Ships from Arabcountries used to come at Karambavane harbour from their the goods were Transported to chiplune market in small boats and carraiages called at Maldoli.
Then they were carried in bullockcarts to the market Since the goods were transported in Maldolis from this village the village came became Maldoli.A carriage Made Specifically to carry goodsGuhagar Beach
The town is in Ratnagiri district known for its virgin beach, coir items, coconuts, betel nuts and mainly Haapus Alphanso mangoes. The nearest city and railhead is Chiplun, about 44 kilometres away. The economy of Guhagar boomed after the Dabhol Power Company, a few kilometres north was commissioned in the early 1990s. Hotels sprung up and residents were given well-paid jobs.
Guhagar beach is a white sand beach which is 6- 7 km long beach. It is situated within 200 metres from Guhagar town. This beach is safe for swimming. It offers a perfect place for sunbath, relaxation and meditation. The offshore chat stalls make this beach an ideal spot for spending vacations.
