Juhu Beach
जुहू बीच
The most famous beach on Mumbai's western outskirts, known for family outings in the evening, street snacks and the mansions of Bollywood stars.
Juhu Beach stretches about 6 km through the wealthy western suburbs, surrounded by many Bollywood stars' homes and seaside hotels. The sea water is murky and unsuitable for swimming. However, in the evening the sand is packed with local families walking, riding horses and flying kites, making it a great place to observe everyday life in Mumbai. Snack stalls near the beach entrance serve pav bhaji, bhel puri, slushies and ice cream. Choose stalls that are busy and make food fresh. Nearby is the well-known Juhu ISKCON temple of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. It is about 15–20 minutes by taxi from Andheri or Vile Parle station. Keep an eye on your belongings.
