About Walaval Creek & Backwaters

The backwaters at Walaval Creek are extremely peaceful and you can have a relaxing time here. The place is perfect for photography, bird watching, and just spending some quiet moments.

There are no commercial activities or water sports available at Walaval Creek, which makes it even more special for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

You can also explore the nearby villages and interact with the locals to get a better understanding of their lifestyle and culture. Local food options are available in these areas.

You can also enjoy a small boat ride for 5 mins distance to the opposite side which is Malvan. This river acts best since old times for traveling from end to another. Infact even today the village residents use the boat to come on the other end for weekly bazaar or any occasion and functions too.

Famous marathi movie Shwaas was shot here where the kid was siting at the same location (Karli River). The river has a beautiful island in center with tall coconut trees & some naughty monkeys. If you just have to take a look while enjoying your ride the charges are just 30 bucks which is nominal.

The best time to visit Walaval Creek is during monsoon and winter when the surroundings are at their greenest and most beautiful.

So next time you want to explore Konkan add this location to your bucket list.
