Our Dahanu is an initiative to bring together everything that makes Dahanu special—its natural beauty, artistic legacy, and the people who strive to keep its essence alive. This platform is a tribute to champions of heritage like Phiroza Tafti.
Dahanu’s people have always lived in harmony with nature—from sustainable farming to eco-tourism. Through this platform, we aim to document, promote, and sustain that way of life for future generations.
From the vibrant Warli murals to the serene beaches and Chikoo orchards, every corner of Dahanu tells a story. Join us in celebrating the culture, craft, and care that define this coastal gem.
