Closer to Velas, the sleepy town of Guhagar has become popular for its pristine beach, one of the best on the Konkan coast. It is one of those rare places where you can forget the world and get truly immersed in nature. Its panoramic landscapes include wide stretches of sparkling golden sand, towering mountains to the east, the vast blue sea and forests of casuarina, locally known as suru tree. Stretching from Guhagar to Asgoli, the 6-km-long beautiful white beach in Guhagar is famed for its restaurants that offer authentic Konkani delights like solkadi and modaks apart from a variety of sea food dishes and hot and crispy bhakris. While visiting Guhagar, one can enjoy a bath in the water on the nearby seashore. There is no other seashore as safe and quiet as the Guhagar beach to enjoy a good bath in the sea during the afternoon.
