Akshi Beach – Akshi – India
Â
The village is full of fishermen & it is not crowded at all. The beach at Akshi is a favourite tourist spot. One could lounge around the clear beaches & step into the warm & unruffled Arabian sea.

The Kolaba fort was constructed by Shivaji Maharaj. Visitors can visit the fort only during low tide. The fort consists of a sweet water well in the middle. There are many temples & fortifications along which guns face the sea. The fort is 300 years old.
Carvings of tigers, peacocks, & elephants on the entrance arch can be seen. Near the gate there are shrines of Mahishasura & Padmavathi & other gods along with the fort’s deity. A Ganesha temple was built in front of the sweet water tank in 1759.
