Things to Do
Things to do in Mumbai: Marine Drive to the Gateway
Sunset at Marine Drive, the Gateway and Colaba, the Elephanta ferry, and Bandra's street art.
Mumbai packs a lot into a coastline.
The icons
Walk Marine Drive at dusk as the "Queen's Necklace" lights up. See the Gateway of India, then wander Colaba Causeway for street shopping and old cafes.
On the water
Take the ferry from the Gateway to the Elephanta Caves, a UNESCO site of rock-cut temples on an island an hour out.
The cool side
Bandra for street art, sea-facing promenades and the best cafe-hopping in the city. Sunset at Bandra Bandstand is a whole mood.
Culture
The Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj museum and the Kala Ghoda art district are worth a slow afternoon.
