Charge to the fort - a photo on Flickriver

Charge to the fort

            Kolaba fort, walk-able at low tide, sail-able in high tide and horse-cart-able when your group contains couple of 18 month old kids, is a military fort of the Maratha kingdom. Constructed in late 16th century, this fort fought major battles against the British and the Portuguese and was successful in keeping them at bay till a major fire incident in 18th century led to its uneventful collapse. The misery continued when the British eventually auctioned off the major woodwork inside the fort and paritally used its rocks to build the local port here in Alibaug.

Nice ruins...sad that I had to explore it in scorching afternoon. Cool breeze though...
