Beaches in Kokan - Girye Beach Devgad

 

Girye-BeachWhen you plan to visit Devgad village or Vijaydurg fort, do come to nearby pristine, virgin, white sand beach called Girye.

The Vijaydurg fort was earlier known as “Gheria” as it is situated in the village “Girye”.

Shivaji Maharaj won this fort from Adilshaha of Bijapur in 1653 and renamed it as “Vijay Durg” as the then Hindu solar ear’s name was “Vijay”. Vijay means Victory.
