context_page_description: Akshe Beach is a popular beach and a vacation spot in Aksa village in Malad, Mumbai, India. It is situated close to Marvé Beach. It is a popular weekend destination. It is dotted with many private cottages and hotels, some of which are rented out to tourists and visitors. Aksa beach also happens to be one of the cleanest beaches in the city.
  This beach has INS Hamla at one end and a small beach called "Dana Paani".
context_section_description: It is not safe to swim as the currents are strong and the sands of the beach keep shifting because of the waves and people often misjudge them. Warning signs of swimming prohibition have been put on the beach and lifeguards have been appointed, however accidents are common, due to rapidly changing tides, and merging to two tide currents on the rocky beach and people ignoring warnings. The beach gets even more dangerous during Monsoon season, though  15,000 people are visiting the beach during weekends.
  Quicksand is also found in the waters, often causing danger.
