Alibaug is a great destination for a long weekend with beaches strewn across the town from the rocky stretches of Kihim to the romantic Nagaon. However Alibaug is not all about beaches. There are fascinating sea forts of Colaba Murud Janjira Khanderi & Underi, magnificent temples of Kankeshwar and 'Birla mandir', historic places like Jerusalem gate and Angre samadhi and water sports too for the adrenaline junkies!
