From time immemorial man’s attraction to natural water bodies brings him close to oceans, rivers, lakes, and waterfalls. The aquatic phenomenon boasts an irresistible charm and people happily succumb to that beauty. Gujarat, with its largest coastal line of nearly 1600 km, has always been a major tourist attraction in western India. People from all over the country visit religious shrines like Dwarka and Somnath not just because of their divine presence but also for their alluring locations. In addition to the two pilgrimage sites, Diu and Daman have gained popularity as exotic tourist spots.

Recently, Praveg Limited - a leading hospitality brand in western India, has built beach resorts at Diu and Daman. The latter has got two resorts - Jampore and Lighthouse. With its proven track record in hospitality, Praveg has successfully grabbed the attention of tourists with its recently-opened resort at Jampore.

Jampore Beach is known for its mud-coloured water. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Jampore offers peace of mind and solitude for families and solo travellers. What makes this place prettier is the large swathes of trees, making it breezy and green.

The destination lures visitors with its extraordinary features like food, adventure activities, shell collection, and others. The place will keep you busy in pleasant ways. Until now, the beach was touted as a weekend getaway; however, with hospitality players making a beeline for Jampore, this resort is now teeming with visitors from far-off places.

The ideal time to visit

If you are a monsoon lover, you can visit the beach during the months of June to August. However, winter is the best time to visit this beach, where you can enjoy the chill and not-so-hot sun. Christmas is celebrated with a lot of fanfare at Jampore, hence, make it a point to visit this beach during December.
