Vasai is one of the most naturally gifted places not only in Maharashtra but also in India. The lush greenary, long beaches , the fort , fields and the innumerable number of fruit trees just would give you vacation goals for an ideal holiday. It is getting recognition gradually due to a large number of Mumbaikars looking for new spots near Mumbai for sight-seeing and picnics. Vasai lies in the northern part of Thane district. Virar is another tourist and commercial centre nearby.

Where the Ulhas river meets the Arabian sea , lies the historic Vasai fort. This fort was an important landmark of the Portuguese.  Later , Bajirao Peshwa -
the Maratha commander won the fort for the Marathas .
That ended the Portuguese rule in the region.                                                                              SURUCHI  BAUG BEACH:
