Sewri mangroves
The Sewri mangroves are a vital coastal ecosystem located in Mumbai, India. They cover approximately 1,000 hectares and are home to various species of flora and fauna, including several types of mangrove trees. This area plays a crucial role in protecting the coastline from erosion and serves as a habitat for numerous birds, fish, and other wildlife.
These mangroves are particularly famous for being a birdwatching hotspot, especially during the migratory season. The Sewri mudflats nearby attract many migratory birds, including flamingos, making it an important site for biodiversity. Conservation efforts are ongoing to protect this unique environment.
