Juhu Beach – Mumbai.

Juhu the most popular beach in Mumbai is situated on the shores of Arabian sea, great ideal spot to relax in sand. Many bollywood stars live in nearby area. In morning many people and stars come here for walk and to jog on the sand. Juhu beach is near to Santacruz, Vile Parle and Andheri stations. One can get down at one of this station and can reach Juhu beach by either BEST bus service or by autorickshaw.

During weekdays it is not crowded, but is always crowded in evenings and weekends. Several performers perform feats and tricks to amuse, entertain and attract crowds just with a hope of earning little money. Those who enjoy flying kites can fly small model planes and parachutes. Best everyone can enjoy the horse and camel rides.

Nearby the sea front, are many stalls that sell food & refreshments, which sells Bhel-puri, Paani-puri, Pav Bhaji, Chats, Sandwiches, Golas (hand made flavoured ice-sticks) etc. including ‘kulfi’ – the famous Indian ice-cream.

While going into water one must not go to far away from the shore to avoid mishaps of getting pulled away due to sudden undertow, that has resulted in some accidents over the years.
