Dahanu is a beautiful coastal town located in the Thane district in the state of Maharastra. Dahanu is a picturesque town with views of the Arabian Sea. The name of the town is coined from the word �Dhenu Gram� which actually means village of cows. It earned itself the name because at one point of time, most of the people of the town owned cows and cattle. Although, recently, the town has emerged as an important commercial and industrial town with many factories and industries. The town is quite scenic with its peaceful stretch of the beach, coconut groves, rose gardens and the beautiful fruit orchards. Dahanu is known for its chickoo production and 50 percent of the India�s chickoo production comes from here. The beach here is beautiful and clean.

The beach in Dahanu stretches up to around 17 kilometres.  The best getaway from a hard week at work. There are also a number of temples in and around the town. All these assets attached to this town makes it a great tourist hub.
