coyly, in the southern reanges of the Sahyadri hills. Amboli at an altitude
of 690 m. is the last mountain resort before the coastal highlands settle, with
a sigh, to form flat beaches.
Visit the numerous view points for a pleasant view of the lush hills and fertile
plain. Sea view Point offers a rare view of the land all the way to the golden
Konkan coast.spend hours by yourself angling for fish at hiranya Keshi or picnic
at the Nagatta Falls, Mahadev Gad and Narayan Gad.
The Bauxite Mines, 10 kms. away, is a pleasant and very different excursion.

Amboli is an ideal resort.
Taxis and rickshaws are available, though horseback and bicycles could add to
the feeling of getting away from it all.
Amboli has a cool and invigorating climate - a welcome respite in summer.

Sawantwadi, Ratnagiri and Belgaum.
