Lanja is a very progressing and upcoming taluka place of Ratnagiri district. The national highway No 66 (Mumbai to Goa) passes through this taluka. The capital city of Maharashtra, Mumbai is situated at a distance of 372 kms towards North and the capital city of Goa, Panajim is at 200 kms towards South. The everlasting Arebian Sea is at West and high hills of Sahyadri are on east. In short, the place is surrounded by sea and mountains. The natural beauty is second to none.
One has to cross the Kashedi Ghat while coming from Mumbai and Amba Ghat while coming from Kolhapur. Journey through this region is pleasurable experience. The road condition and other related facilities are improved a lot from last 10 years due to the development in the tourism industry.
