Devbaug is blessed with natural beauty and is covered in coconut palms and lush greenery. An erstwhile fishing hamlet Devbaug now is developing into a tourist destination with a good majority of youth prefering the tourism industry to fishing.

Devbaug - +/- ?..
Being a fishing hamlet about 5-10% of Devbaug beach is used for drying fish and is better avoided unless you like the smell of drying fish which can be considered as a disadvantage however this on the other hand ensures you of freshly caught fish and deliciously cooked malvani food!
