Nature Trails and Bird Watching

What better way to start your day than with a sighting of Hornbills or the White bellied Sea Eagle that nests in our property! With a protected patch of forest and the rainwater lakes, SwaSwara plays host to a wide variety of migratory and resident birds, with occasional visits from endangered species too. Experience all this and more on our guided bird watching walks offered every Wednesday morning. You could also hike across Om Beach, up the cliffs through the scrub jungle and acacia plantation to Half-moon beach and trek back uphill along a mud road to the resort.

Boat Ride

You can contact our front desk for Boat Rides to Mirjan Fort, Long Beach and Tadadi Harbour. A very interesting cruise to the historic Mirjan Fort, takes you through the sea up the Aganashini river. A tuk tuk ride will get you from the boat jetty to the fort. Return by boat to OM Beach. Cruise by the pristine long beach where you can explore a relatively un touristy beach and fishermans village and a typical Konkan style temple. Cruise to the busy fishing harbour to experience the local flavor of a bustling fish market. Return by Tuk Tuk.
