The Coastal Road is planned to stretch along the western coastline of Mumbai, connecting the southern end of Marine Drive (Queen's Necklace) near Nariman Point. Worli Sea face is a popular and prominent promenade located in the Worli neighborhood of Mumbai. The coastal road is disrupting the ecosystem of the thriving marine and land species of the neighborhood.
Apart from providing a view of the Worli Sea Face and Sea Link, the promenade, at times, might host flea markets or pop-up shops selling handicrafts, clothes, and other items, adding to the lively atmosphere.
The biophilic walk has a stone path with trees around. It promotes learning with seminar spaces. Artistic activities like sketching and painting are encouraged here. Families can enjoy exploration and play, fostering learning.
