Murud beach food [photos, hotel names and my recommendation]

Which route to Murud beach from Pune is fastest, good (without potholes), no tolls and less traffic ?

I started my journey to Murud  beach via Pali-Roha route and the travel was fantastic 🙂 road is very good and there was no traffic at all, I could reach there from Chinchwad in about 3.5 hours at max speed of 80 kmph ! (tried to respect highway limits for speed !) On the way back I selected route via Alibaug just to know the difference, in terms of kilometers covered it is equal from Roha or alibaug, but in terms of traffic and road width, Roha -Pali route is the best I say. Alibaug road is too narrow hence when u hv bus or truck in front of u .. it takes miles to overtake the same and  u keep dragging at slow speed and bus stops !! also once u take right turn from alibaug towards the highway then Hey Prabho !! there is hell of traffic (indiscipline) so u can go at around speed of 20~30 kmph … so it took me more time via this alternate route.
Other drawback of Alibaug route is that while going to Murud via roha-pali I did not pay a single toll except the express highway 99 Rs. however while coming back via alibaug i had to pay toll two places ! 15 rs at alibaug and 25 rs again, at express way the return toll was 125 rs to pune ! so i would say Roha-Pali route was the best choice 🙂

We had our lunch at the most famous Patil Khanawal – Murud beach – it was highly crowded place, food taste in terms of its originality which i had tasted years back is lost ! may be they are not able to handle big crowd in so short time span, that is the reason I hunted for another option Swami Khanawal.murud patil khanawal

This time I walked around the village as timepass.. it took me about 2 hours but was worth to see the old houses, people, living style.. the market …. since normally i spend all time on the beach and come back .. so i decided to explore more on my own which was really a nice experience indeed 🙂

Also you will love to read my visit to Revdanda sea beach which is calm and serene

cheers !!
