Early mornings at Juhu Beach For those looking to avoid the mad rush of tourists and experience the relaxed nature of the beach, early mornings are a great time to visit. The beach is surprisingly empty, with only the nearby residents coming here for a morning run, walk their dogs, or play frisbee. You would see a number of runners running along the 3km+ coast, quite a few of them barefoot. Almost all the food stalls are closed at this hour, and there are only a few vendors selling tea or coconut water. The beach is cleaned late night/early morning, so this is also when the beach is at its cleanest! Sunsets at Juhu Beach Facing the west, Juhu beach naturally has a brilliant sunset, in all weathers. Granted, the beach is crowded at this time - specially if it's a weekend - but walk a few minutes away from where all the food stalls are, and you should be able to find an empty-ish spot for yourself. Grab a simple blanket (available on rent for rs. 50) and relax on the sand while enjoying the sunset. You can get a lot of snacks to eat while sitting - likechana jor garam,bhel,vadapao to name only a few. Food at Juhu Beach The variety of snacks that you can get on the beach is pretty incredible. There are a lot of shops near the main parking area which sell a number of local food items - panipuri, bhelpuri, misal pao, pao bhaji, vada pao. You can also get great South Indian food : masala dosa, idli, vada being the most common. Chinese is pretty popular and common too. Although the street food here is not the tastiest - and many would argue healthiest - there is a lot to choose from, and street food lovers would definitely be excited. Late nights at Juhu Beach Although the police start driving people away from the beach around 1AM, it is not too uncommon (or difficult) to sneak in from one of the side openings to the beach. The beach is surprisingly quiet at this hour, with hardly a few other adventurous souls venturing out so late. As long as you are not a nuisance, you can take a quiet stroll along the beach or sit and talk on the sand. 

Best time to visit Juhu Beach Juhu beach is a great place to visit all times of the year, especially during early morning or evenings. Even in the hot summer months, the evenings are very pleasant as a cool sea breeze blows, and the temperatures being mild. The monsoon might not be the best time to visit since there are a lot of high tides and the sand is completely wet practically all the time. However, the view of big, dark clouds floating over the ocean is quite mesmerising.  How to Reach Juhu Beach Juhu Beach is located in Ville Parle and can be easily reached via autos, cabs, state transport buses or even trains.The nearest local train stations are Vile Parle, Santa Cruz or Andheri on the Western Line. There is a BEST bus station right next to the beach, so there are quite a few buses plying from these railway stations to the beach - 231, 224 and 201. If you are planning to come by own vehicle, you must be wary since parking options are limited. A paid parking is available at the beach (in front of Tap restaurant) but you might have to wait for a long time in the queue, particularly if you are visiting on a weekend. Apart from this, trying to find parking near the beach is practically impossible.
