Mumbai High Tide Images - Hundreds flock to sea side to watch high tide
Mumbai High Tide brought hundreds of people to the Sea Side to witness the highest Waves Mumbai has seen in 100 years. People gathered at Mumbai’s Gateway of India, Worli, Marine Drive, Bandra and other sea side locations on Friday to watch the tall waves. Mumbai was hit by huge waves 5.5 metres high, and Mumbaikars visited places like, Marine Drive, Juhu and Worli among others to have a glimpse of the soaring sea waves.
The fire brigade, coast guard and other authorities were on an alert and around 200 families were evacuated from the coastal regions. We have been informing our readers about the High Tide in Mumbai and the timing of this high tide.
The high tides were believed to occur by a combination of monsoon and strong gravitational pull of the moon two days after the new moon. As water hit sea sides near Prabhadevi, Worli, Juhu and Bandra, the Gateway of India just outside the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower Hotel some places experienced damage to the sea side protections.
Here are some photos and images of the high tide in Mumbai.
