Juhu Beach isn't just a stretch of sand — it's the soul of Mumbai. Located on the city's western coastline, this 6-kilometre beach is where Bollywood dreams meet the Arabian Sea, where the aroma of sizzling pav bhaji blends with salty ocean breeze, and where millions of Mumbaikars come to breathe, celebrate, and simply be.
As the team at Hotel Sea Princess — located directly on Juhu Tara Road, steps from the shore — we've spent over 25 years watching guests fall in love with this neighbourhood. So we've put together this insider guide to the top 15 things to do near Juhu Beach, Mumbai — from iconic must-dos to secret spots only locals know about.
01. Watch the Legendary Juhu Beach Sunset
No visit to Juhu is complete without witnessing the sunset. As the sun dips into the Arabian Sea, the sky transforms into a canvas of orange, pink, and gold. It's Mumbai's most Instagrammed moment for a reason.
The best spot? Right in front of Hotel Sea Princess on Juhu Tara Road — where the beach is less crowded and the view is unobstructed. If you're staying with us, our Sea View Rooms offer this spectacle from your private balcony every single evening.
02. Feast on Iconic Juhu Beach Street Food
Juhu Beach is arguably Mumbai's greatest open-air food court. The stalls lining the beach serve up some of the city's most legendary street food — dishes that have been perfected over decades and are as much a part of Mumbai's identity as the Gateway of India.
- Pav Bhaji — Buttery, spicy vegetable mash with toasted bread. Try it at the stalls near the main entrance.
- Bhel Puri — Puffed rice, chutneys, onions, and sev — the quintessential beach snack.
- Pani Puri (Golgappa) — Crispy shells filled with spiced water. Addictive.
- Vada Pav — Mumbai's answer to the burger. Spicy potato patty in bread. ₹20 perfection.
- Kulfi & Gola — Indian ice cream and crushed ice treats — perfect for the Mumbai heat.
03. Visit ISKCON Temple, Juhu
Just 3 km from Hotel Sea Princess, the ISKCON Temple (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) is one of Mumbai's most beautiful spiritual landmarks. The temple's stunning white marble architecture, peaceful gardens, and melodious kirtans create a serene escape from the city's hustle.
Don't miss the prasadam (sacred food) served daily — the temple is famous for its delicious vegetarian meals. The evening aarti ceremony at 7 PM is particularly mesmerizing with hundreds of devotees chanting together.
04. Catch a Play at Prithvi Theatre
Located just 2 km from the hotel on Juhu Church Road, Prithvi Theatre is Mumbai's cultural heartbeat. Founded by the legendary Kapoor family (yes, Bollywood royalty), this intimate 200-seat theatre hosts world-class Hindi and English plays, poetry readings, and literary festivals throughout the year.
After the show, head to the iconic Prithvi Café — their Irish coffee and cutting chai are legendary, and the open-air seating is perfect for a post-theatre discussion under the stars.
05. Go Celebrity Spotting in Juhu
Juhu is Mumbai's Beverly Hills — home to some of Bollywood's biggest stars. A drive through the leafy lanes around Juhu Tara Road and Juhu Church Road takes you past the homes of Amitabh Bachchan (Jalsa & Pratiksha), Hrithik Roshan, Anupam Kher, and many more. On lucky evenings, you might even spot celebrities jogging on the beach or dining at local restaurants.
06. Early Morning Sunrise Walk & Yoga
Before the crowds arrive, Juhu Beach transforms into a peaceful wellness retreat. Between 5:30 AM and 7 AM, you'll find locals doing yoga, tai chi, jogging, and meditation on the sand. The sunrise over Mumbai's skyline, with the cool sea breeze and empty beach, is a completely different experience from the evening buzz.
Several yoga instructors offer group sessions on the beach every morning — ask our concierge to arrange a private session if you prefer.
07. Try Water Sports & Beach Activities
Juhu Beach offers a range of fun activities for all ages, especially during the cooler months (October–March). Enjoy horse rides and camel rides along the shore, try your hand at beach cricket with locals, or rent a jet ski or speedboat from operators near the Juhu-Versova stretch.
For kids, there are inflatable bounce houses, balloon sellers, and sand castle building — making Juhu Beach one of Mumbai's best family-friendly destinations.
08. Experience Juhu Nightlife at Hotel Sea Princess Club
When the sun goes down, Juhu comes alive with Mumbai's vibrant nightlife — and there's no better place to experience it than the Hotel Sea Princess Club. Our exclusive nightclub features live DJs, premium cocktails, VIP sections, and themed nights including Ladies Night and Bollywood Night.

09. Shop at Linking Road, Bandra

From trendy clothing and accessories to shoes, bags, and jewellery — you'll find everything at bargain prices. The key? Haggle hard and have fun with it. Nearby Hill Road offers similar shopping with less crowd.
10. Explore Sanjay Gandhi National Park
Just 18 km from Juhu, Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) is one of the world's few national parks located inside a major city. Home to leopards, deer, butterflies, and the ancient Kanheri Caves (2,400-year-old Buddhist rock-cut caves), it's a perfect half-day excursion from Hotel Sea Princess for nature lovers and history buffs alike.
11. Relax by the Rooftop Pool at Sea Princess
After all that exploring, you deserve a break. The rooftop swimming pool at Hotel Sea Princess offers a stunning panoramic view of the Mumbai skyline and the Arabian Sea. Grab a cocktail from the poolside bar, sink into a lounger, and let the city disappear beneath you.
Our pool is temperature-controlled and open daily from 6 AM to 9 PM — perfect for an early morning swim or a late afternoon cool-down.
12. Visit Bandra Bandstand & Sea Link
An 8 km drive from Hotel Sea Princess takes you to Bandra Bandstand — a scenic sea-facing promenade with views of the magnificent Bandra-Worli Sea Link. Walk along the promenade, visit the historic Castella de Aguada (Portuguese fort), and spot Shah Rukh Khan's Mannat residence. The sunset from Bandstand is almost as stunning as Juhu's — with the Sea Link adding drama to the skyline.
13. Fine Dining at Hotel Sea Princess
Juhu's dining scene extends well beyond street food. At Hotel Sea Princess restaurants, savour a multi-cuisine fine dining experience with everything from authentic Indian thalis and Mughlai kebabs to Continental and Chinese favourites — all served with stunning views and impeccable service.
