Velneshwar village is named after famous temple of Velneshwar (Shiva) which is Kuladaivat for over 24 clans in Maharashtra. The temple is old and with spacious complex constructed in the stone. It is a quiet and serene place where you can plan to stay for few days if you wish to re-energize yourself. It is also a great place for people with Kids to stay for few days and experience nature and village life. Chief attraction is the fact that at Velneshwar the hills come close to beach. This is probably the best combination on serpentine roads, hillocks, great greenery and great beach.

It is a delight to see Dolphins that come very close to the coast and you can spot them play on the tides sitting on the beach. At the south end of the beach there is fisherman village.

At night when the fishermen head towards deep sea for the catch in their trawlers and boats with lights on; worth a watch gazing them disappear in the darkness before you fall asleep.
