Kundalika River - 02:33
The Kundalika is a small river flowing from the hills of Sahyadri to the Arabian Sea. This river originates at a small town called Bhira in the Indian state of Maharashtra, 150 km southeast of Bombay (Mumbai). The important towns located on the banks of Kundalika are Kolad, Korlai, Chaul, Roha and Salav.

River Kundalika is fed by the excess water from Tata Power's Mulshi Dam Project on to a series of hydroelectric projects and dams, including Ravalje followed by Bhira and then Dholvan, where the water is released in the morning typically at 6am. The gush of the water reaches Sutarwadi at 7:30am and water rises at Kolad at 10:00am. Kundalika river is extremely popular for river rafting.

Korlai Beach - 12:29
Korlai Beach is about 5 km south to Revdanda Beach. The Kundalika River flyover is a beautiful scene for a stop - view - go kind of. Korlai fort and hill has a small but beautiful beach. The beach comprises whitish black sand and rocky areas. You can see barnacles sprouted on these rocks. These barnacles are very hard and sharp. Do not try walking on them bare feet.

This beach doesn’t have any watersports facility or any food outlets. This gives you a best opportunity to spend a calm evening here while the fort guards your back. While you are there, you can also see the lighthouse in action when it starts its focus.
