The beach, facing the Arabian Sea, is approximately four kilometers long and undeveloped. At the north end of the beach where a small stream enters the ocean there is the fishing settlement, Velas Agar, and some paddy farming, while at the south end there is a sanctuary for migratory seabirds. Nearby, there is a small fishing village, where vendors sell fresh fish, which goes by name of Bharadkhol. The beach is accessible from the Mumbai-Goa highway via Kolad or Karnala.

According to historical records, the Shilahara dynasty ruled Diveagar for around 450 years between 800 and 1265 AD. Due to its proximity to the sea, trade and business flourished here and the town eventually endured the wrath of Arab pirates who looted the village and destroyed many temples. Visit these temples on your visit here and also pay a visit to the one dedicated to Lord Ganesha. Book Cab From Pune to Diveagar
The temple has an intriguing story. In 1997, Draupadi Patil, a local farmer, discovered a copper box while ploughing her fields. The box contained the Ganesha idol, which by some estimates has a mask of pure gold and weighs over 12 kg. A temple was built around this Suvarna Ganesha or the Ganesha of Gold. Photograpy is prohibited inside the temple.
