M2M Ferry: A Scenic Ride from Mumbai to Konkan
Everything you need to know for a smooth sea journey
There are journeys that transport you not just across locations, but across time and mood. The M2M Ferry from Mumbai to Konkan is one such experience—where the sea breeze replaces city chaos, and your road trip gets a dash of cruise magic.
What is the M2M Ferry?
The M2M Ferry is India’s first Ro-Pax (roll-on/roll-off passenger) ferry service, launched between Mumbai’s Bhaucha Dhakka (Ferry Wharf) and Mandwa Jetty near Alibaug. This isn’t just a passenger ferry—you can literally drive your car or bike onto the ship and be transported across the Arabian Sea while you enjoy a relaxed hour on board.
Why Take the Ferry to Konkan?
The Konkan coast is a ribbon of natural beauty—lush hills, coastal roads, fishing villages, and golden beaches. But let’s face it: driving out of Mumbai can be frustrating with traffic snarls and narrow highways. Enter the M2M Ferry: a time-saver, a stress-buster, and a scenic detour.
- Skip the traffic: No more crawling through Panvel or Pen. The ferry whisks you straight to the coast.
- Save time: What would take 4-6 hours by road can be halved.
- Bring your vehicle: Cars, bikes, scooters — all are welcome.
- Experience the sea: Get out of the car, sip a coffee, and soak in the ocean view.
