Nariman Point being a concrete jungle and Malabar Hill being resplendent
with nature's beauty. Marine Drive Beach was reclaimed from the Back Bay
in 1920 and since then, it has been extremely popular amongst the locals
as well as the tourists visiting the Mumbai city of India.Cool breezes sweeping the beach serve as an excellent relaxant for the body and its cool sands lure you to take long walks.

Even couples frequent the place in large numbers to spend sometime in solitude. You will find a large number of hawkers at the Marine Drive Beach, selling delicious street food, local knick knacks, and so on.
