How to reach Vasai Fort
One have to take small safety boats to go to this old
fort from the Malvan through a narrow navigable channel between two
smaller islands of Dhontara and Padmagad. It takes about 15 minutes
to reach the Sindhudurg Fort jetty. There is even a guide to take you
around inside. Mumbai–Malvan, 546 k.m. Kolhapur–Malvan, 160 k.m.
Since Malvan is a large town, getting there is not
a problem. State transport and private buses ply from Mumbai, Ratanagiri,
Kolhapur, Pune, and Panaji.
