This area is especially famous for its birds and is a popular destination for birdwatchers in winter.

Demographics

As of the 2001 Indian census, Datiware had a population of 1,489. Males constitute 745 of the population and females 744. Number of total households was 326.^[1]

The area has a variety of habitats including rural agricultural fields, estuary and sea-shore.

Location

Datiware is 100 km from Dahisar Checkpost. On the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway, take a left turn at Varai Phata (45 km from Dahisar). From Varai phata reach Saphale station. Take a right turn from Saphale station and follow the sign boards to Datiware.

It can also be reached by sea from Arnala village where a small launch may be available to reach Datiware.

By rail, one has to travel to Saphale station on the Western railway line. From here you can get state transport buses or private vehicles to Datiware

A new route via sea has been started from Virar (chikhal dongari), with the coordinates of 19°29'39.9"N 72°47'35.8"E.

The area also has numerous mudskippers and other species of fish. They are locally called nivthi and the species found here is Boleophthalmus dussumieri.

Kolim fishery^[1] is a seasonal type of fishing followed in the coastal villages of thane district. Women and children use simple nets in the near shore areas to catch a tiny mysid shrimp, Mesopodosis orientalis, which is a rather uncommon crustacean. The kolim season in datiware is from March to May.
