Evening at Chowpatty Beach in Mumbai is more like a carnival, kids screaming on ferris wheels or taking pony rides, astrologers making a quick buck, monkey shows, snake charmers and so on. One can enjoy lip smacking snacks that are served here like Bhelpuri, pao bhaji, batata puri, sev puri, ice cream, fresh green tender coconuts, Chaat and many more. Several Hindu religious ceremonies are also taking place at Chowpatty like annual thread-tying ceremony, nariel-purnima and Ganesh Chaturthi immersions.

A visit to Mumbai is incomplete without visiting the Chowpatty Beach. The Crawford Market and the Mahalaxmi Racecourse are some of the nearby attractions in Mumbai and thus forming an eminent part of the Mumbai Travel Guide. The best time to visit the Chowpatty Beach is during the winters, when the weather of Mumbai is cool and dry, pulling in tourists from all over the world.
