Finding Flamingos

Discover Mumbai’s vibrant biodiversity as thousands of flamingos migrate to the city each year, offering a mesmerising spectacle from December to May. Witness this breathtaking sight spanning from Thane Creek to the Sewri jetty area, extending up to the Elephanta Caves – covering a remarkable 15-20 km stretch.

The Sewri Mangrove Park or the Thane Creek Flamingo Sanctuary offers the ultimate flamingo viewing experience. Equip yourself with binoculars and set out early between 6 am to 10 am to catch these elegant birds in their natural habitat, their graceful pink forms creating a striking contrast against the landscape.

While guided tours are available for flamingo spotting, exploring independently allows for a more personal and immersive experience. 

How to reach? Both Sewri Road and Thane stations provide convenient access to these avian hotspots, depending on your preferred destination. So, whether you’re a nature enthusiast or simply seeking a tranquil escape, don’t miss the opportunity to witness Mumbai’s captivating flamingo migration firsthand.
