Getting There (Mumbai To Alibaug)
Reaching Alibaug is a breeze, with two primary options at your disposal: ferry or road. The quickest transport to get to Alibaug from Mumbai is by boat from the Gateway of India in Mumbai's south region to Mandwa Jetty. It is an hour's ride by ferry and approximately 20 minutes in a speedboat.
By Ferry
For a scenic journey across the Arabian Sea, opt for the ferry service. Several companies operate ferries departing regularly from the Gateway of India and Bhaucha Dhakka in Mumbai, arriving at Mandwa Jetty, very close to most of our villas in Alibaug. The comfortable ride takes approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the route and ferry operator.

Essential Tips
Ferry timings and prices can vary depending on the company and deck type (main deck, AC deck, upper deck).
Always check the official websites of the ferry companies for the latest information before booking your tickets.
By Road

So, for those who enjoy a scenic road trip to their stay in Alibaug, travelling by car is an excellent alternative.
