INR 2000/- per person
Ratnagiri is warm and humid in the summer due to its coastal climate. The days are hot, with temperatures reaching 38 degrees, but the evenings are lighter, making them ideal for leisurely stroll along the beaches. Even if local tourism to numerous forts, forests, and waterfalls is not feasible during the summer, there are other options.
Despite the fact that this isn't the busiest season for travellers due to the unexpected rains, it's a beautiful time to explore the town. In the midst of lush green trees, the hilltops are stunning. It's a great time to stay in a tree house and do some bird watching and nature photography. The waterfalls are at their most beautiful, adding to the Konkan region's overall grandeur.
The greatest time to visit Ratnagiri is during the winter, when the weather is favourable and sightseeing is possible. You can participate in a variety of beach activities and have a picnic with your family. The temperature is around 19 degrees Fahrenheit, and the humidity is low. The hilltops are stunning, and now is an excellent time to take in the views from the vantage points. During the winter, taking a boat ride across town is a favorite activity.
In Ratnagiri, local buses are a good way to get around. The MSRTC (Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation) and commercial operators both run buses. The government and public buses have made it simple to explore Ratnagiri's different tourist attractions.
In Ratnagiri, auto rickshaws and taxis are readily available and tend to be a practical mode of transportation. In Ratnagiri, however, app-based/radio cab services such as Ola, Uber, and Meru are not yet available.
You can also rent cabs while in Ratnagiri to get around the city. They can be chauffeured or self-driven.
Ratnagiri is probably India's only rural district with three Bharat Ratna awards. Mandangad (Ambedkar), Dapoli (Maharishi Karve), and Khed (PV Kane) are simply the first three talukas.
As a political detainee of the British, the king of Burma was held in Ratnagiri city. Tilak was born in Ratnagiri and was held as a political prisoner by the British in Mandalay, Burma.
Susrondi cave, located in Ratnagiri's Guhagar taluka, contains traces of a stone age perhaps non-homo-sapien settlement, which is possibly unique in the region.
