Daman earlier called 'Damao', is situated on the west
coast of India, bordered by the Arabian Sea. It is surrounded
by the Kolak River on the north, Gujarat on the east,
Kalai River on the south and Gulf of Cambay on the west.
The clean and picturesque beached of Daman are very inviting
to all the tourists especially the ever tensed and tired
urbanites.
The amusement park on the Devka beach and Nani Daman rejuvenates
and recreates the tourists. The illumination on festive
days is a treat to the eyes. |
| The Jampore
beach offers a very silent and serene atmosphere, an ideal
place for 'solitude-hunters'. Other tourist places in
Daman are Nani Daman Jetty Garden, old churches,
forts, lighthouse and a summerhouse. |

Pandavas during their fourteen years of exile are believed
to have passed a few days at a place known as Mani Nagar
(DIU) which was under the Yadavas led by Krishna Vasudeva
during Mahabharata period. According to mythology, Diu
was ruled by the great king Jallandhar who was a daitya
(Demon) and was killed by Lord Vishnu with his Sudarshan
Chakra. The temple of Jallandhar still exists in Diu.
A palm-fringed, largely deserted and secluded beach, Nagoa
is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful beaches in India.
The unique shoe-shape of the beach makes it all the more
beautiful. |
 |
| The island of
Diu, an erstwhile Portuguese colony, is situated off the
Saurashtra coast of Gujarat bordering Junagadh district.
The other equally beautiful beaches are Ahmedpur, Mandvi,Chakratirath,
Jallandhar, and Gomtimata all having their own charm and
thrill.The word 'Diu' is derived from the Sanskrit word
'Dweep'. During the period from the 14th to 16th century
Diu was one of the best Sea Ports and a Naval base. |
