The Mochemad village near Vengurla is beautifully placed in the arms of several green hills and a few mountains. 
 The coastline has been strewn with Suru tree plantations. The calm sea breeze blows across the beach and the waves of the Arabian Ocean splash the beach relentlessly.
Here water is pure and clean and the waves of the Arabian Sea splash on the beach obstinately. The placid environment of the Mochemad beach mesmerizes every visitor. This water is safe for swimming and the beach is isolated from the normal hustle associated with any beach.
The long stretch of the beach with clean sand presents a picturesque view of a dream beach straight from a portrait. This gives feeling of the village being placed inside a bowl and to top it off it has also been blessed with a Golden sand beach that stretches.
Making sand castles and writing the names on the wet sand is the favorite of all kids. The feel of sand slipping from your feet at the beach is thrilling.
One can also visit Mochemad beach during mornings and do some meditation or jogging and enjoy beautiful sunrise. Places to see nearby this beach are Sagareshwar beach, Shiroda beach, Redi Ganesh temple and Vetoba temple.
