The ferry ride from Gateway of India takes travellers till Mandwa jetty, the popular carriers are Ajanta (non A/c), PNC and Maldaar (Air conditioned) We availed PNC carrier to reach Mandwa jetty. Supposedly the tickets for the same can be purchased from the counter. Unfortunately, the ferry tickets were not available at the counter as due to heavy rush they were unable to determine the no. of tickets (???, could have been possible as per no. of seats available in the carrier). There was a long que for Ajanta ferry leaving every half and hour. While we were in the que there was a frantic call that PNC is scheduled to arrive soon. Many travellers rushed to the specified site ant after about 45 minutes the PNC ferry left the shores of Gateway of India. The experience was alright, the carrier had good seating arrangement in the lower deck and the passengers could climb upto upper deck if they so desired. While returning from Mandwa jetty due to time constraints we took Ajanta ferry, which takes longer time to reach as compared to PNBC carrier. The ferry was open unlike PNC carrier but it had its own advantages as you can absorb the sight in a much better way. Overall it is quite enjoyable ride in both the carriers. The Mandwa beach is beautiful dotted with good restaurants and resorts. I feel it is a better idea to stay in one of the resorts for a couple of days rather than just visiting the beach.…

It's sad to see the very few mangrove bushes and covered with plastic fishing nets, liquor bottles or empty snack packs…
