Boats

Some more boats off the Mumbai harbour. Elephanta island is nearing now. My next post should be a view of the island from a distance.

Barracuda 1

Barracuda 1 was the name of this beauty. I dont know much about boats and ships but loved the look of the beauty anchored in the Arabian sea off Mumbai.

Speed boat


One of the many speedboats that raced past as we motored along gently to the Elephanta caves. Will post all sights that I liked and clicked on the way. :) Hope you enjoy them all the same!

The boat

This is the typical boat that is used to ferry people across people between the Gateway of India and the Elephanta caves. The Elephanta island is located about 13 km away from the Gateway of India at Mumbai. These caves house rock cut temples dating back to the 5th century.
