Bhatye Beach
भाट्ये समुद्रकिनारा
A sandy beach stretching about 2 km south of Ratnagiri town, shaded by casuarina trees, where locals walk and watch the sunset in the evening.
Bhatye Beach lies south of the Kajvi River mouth. Its wide, flat sands are backed by casuarina windbreak forest and coconut groves. Nearby, you can visit the coconut research station of Konkan Agricultural University to see different coconut varieties. The water is shallow, but the current is strong near the river mouth, so swimming is not recommended. In the evenings, snack stalls sell Konkan snacks. It pairs well with Thiba Point and is about a 10-minute drive from Ratnagiri town.
