Diu, a former Portuguese colony, is the only place in Gujarat where alcohol is permitted. For that reason, it is a popular retreat with Westerners and Gujaratis alike.
It's small, sandy island with lovely white-washed churches, a fort that begs exploration and winding streets that are perfect for bicycling.
It's a long and rough road to get to Diu, but definitely worth the extra effort. Lesson learned ~ the seats in the back of the bus are the most sensitive to bumps in the road. Be forewarned. :-) |

Did you get out to Mandvi in Kutch? I was there in 93 and had the best Thali's I've found. Nobody seems to have been there- was it destroyed in 2001? | dr.firas Wed Aug 20, 2003 11:41 UTC
