Overview

Moti Daman Jetty Garden is a waterfront public park located along the Daman Ganga River estuary in the historic Moti Daman district. The park is situated directly adjacent to the remnants of the colonial-era Moti Daman Fort, providing views of the river meeting the Arabian Sea. It features paved walkways, manicured lawns, and seating areas oriented toward the water. The garden serves as a transition space between the administrative fort area and the active jetty where fishing boats dock. It is a popular vantage point for watching sunset transitions over the water.

Insider tips

Visit during low tide if you wish to see the exposure of the muddy riverbanks and fishing boat positioning.

Bring mosquito repellent, as the riverside vegetation can attract insects during dusk hours.

Combine your visit with a walking tour of the nearby Moti Daman Fort ramparts.

What to avoid

Avoid swimming in the river or the jetty waters, as the currents near the confluence can be unpredictable and the area is primarily for industrial docking.
