The beach is famed for its natural, unpolluted water. The best time to visit is in winter from November till March when the temperature is 20-30°C. During summers, from April- june, the temperature rises up to 40° C and during monsoon from July to October, the place receives a considerable amount of rainfall due to which the roads leading to the beach can get slippery and slushy. The beach consists of Sahyadri rocks and an expanse of white sand. Studies show that it might be vulnerable to sea erosion is high sand dunes are not established to be stabilised by vegetation. At times, Jelly fishes are washed across the shores as well.
