The entire beach stretch is about 17 kms lined with casuarinas trees. Today Dahanu has become a major commercial and industrial town in the Thane district. It is well known for the chickoo fruit and accounts for over 50% of Indias chickoo production. Rubber balloons rice mills and manufactured goods are major manufacturing products which are produced in Dahanu. There is also a 500-MW power plant that supplies electricity to Mumbai. The only thing to do here is to visit the beach and enjoy the sea. The waves are calm and have no undercurrents.
