Quiet place for New Year's Eve - From the South up until Goa

ThierryBxl · Mar 29th, 2007, 17:21

Hello everybody,

We are planning to be in the South at around New Year's eve.

Could anyone recommend me a quiet (i.e. not invaded by the beach party crowd) place that is within easy reach of Bombay (either by plane or train):

- would Panjim be unbearably busy at that time of the year? I am not talking of the beaches.
- how about Kochi?

Or any other recommendation? We are open.

Thanks for your help!

With kind regards,
Thierry

Hi ThierryBxl,

Ratnagiri is located some 430 km from Mumbai, have daily trains, the best trains that i advise is train# 2051 jan shatabdi (do not run on wed) which departs at Dadar railway station in Mumbai at 5:30 am and reaches ratnagiri at 10:30 am. Ratnagiri is surrounded by sahyadri hills. Enjoy the country-side enroute on the konkan railway. good place to go and relax. Just for curiosity, why are you planning newyear eve so early, i believe you are planning for 2008 new year
