Nongkhnum Island Beach

One of the best place for picnic.

Its a wonderful place for picnic and site seeing

Located about 105 kms from Shillong, it's a less frequented place but extremely beautiful and scenic. The road once you will leave the Tura National Highway at Nongstoin will become bumpy and then full off uneven and pebbled road for over 13 kms. The road is being repaired but might take a year as monsoons have already set in.nThe place has been reasonably developed well by the administration in the sense that you have Gazebos, washrooms, cottages iron bridge to connect to the river island.nIts lush green during summers. There's a breath taking waterfall about 500 m away.nYou can enjoy boat ride and fishing too.nThis place is good for camping overnight for the more adventurous.nIf you hv come all the way till this place don't miss out on visiting the Kshaid Weiner or the Rainbow waterfall which is close by.nAword of caution..thers no connectivity from Jio or Vodafone at this place.nNo shops selling water or eatables too so pls stock up enroute and drive in a 4 wheeler with a higher road clearance.nA must visit place.
