    BMC’s high-tide days for the monsoon

    Saturday, 1 May 2027. All Mumbai beaches

    Published every year between April and June.

    BMC lists the days when the tide goes above 4.5 metres (24 such days in 2026, the highest 4.89 m on 16 July). Stay off the shore from two hours before to two hours after each listed time. We add the 2027 list here when it’s out.

    Monsoon fishing ban

    Tue, 1 Jun to Sat, 31 Jul. Sea up to 12 nautical miles

    1 June to 31 July every year (the standard rule).

    Mechanised and motorised boats stay ashore, so fresh sea fish is scarce and pricier. In 2026 the state kept mechanised boats out of the 12-mile zone until 15 August; check whether that applies again in 2027.

    Usually 11 June to 8 October (IMD normal dates).

    Actual dates change every year. Keep out of the sea, watch for orange and red rain alerts, and expect the roads to flood in heavy rain. See the monsoon guide.

Checked 26 October 2026. Hindu festival dates are from Drik Panchang (computed for New Delhi; a Mumbai date can rarely differ by a day). The 2027 Maharashtra holiday list is not out yet.
