'''Redi''' is a village in the district of [[Sindhudurg]] in [[Maharashtra]]. Originally known as '''Rewati''', Redi is located close to the shores of the [[Arabian Sea]]. Cashew and coconut trees grow in the region.

The village belongs to the [[Vengurla]] Taluka of the [[Konkan]] region and was a significant sea port during the earlier times. Redi has now evolved into a tourist hub because of its long virgin and unspoiled beaches alongside archaic historic monuments like the [[Yashwantgad Fort]]. Redi is merely 566 km away from [[Mumbai]] and can be easily reached.

==History==
Redi was built by the [[Marathas]] in the sixteenth century and, in 1746, was captured by the [[Portugal|Portuguese]]. The previous citadel-holders, the [[Sawant]] clan of Maharashtra, attempted to recapture Redi by poisoning the Portuguese garrison's fish supply, but the attack was unsuccessful.

Redi was eventually returned to the Sawants following a peace treaty, but the peace was short-lived; in 1765 the fort was captured by the [[Kingdom of Great Britain|British]] who sold the land to local people in 1890 while retaining ownership of the [[Yashwantgad Fort|Redi fort]] walls.

==Geography==

Being the place of one of Maharashtra's [[Ganapati Temple, Redi|Ganesh temples]], Ganesh Chaturthi has an important place in people's lives. In Redi, most Hindu families install their own small clay statues for worship on Ganesh Chaturthi. The idol is worshiped every morning and evening until the "departure". The daily worship ceremonies end with the worshipers singing the [[Aarti]] in honor of [[Ganesha|Ganesh]], other Gods and saints by visiting each one's home in the village who has ongoing celebrations. As per the tradition of their respective families, the domestic celebrations come to an end after 1, 3, 5, 7, 11 or 21 days when the statue is taken in a procession to the Arabian Sea for immersion.

===Cuisine===
Cuisine covers a range from mild to very spicy dishes. Rice, vegetables, lentils and fruit are staple foods. Popular dishes include fish curry and rice. Meals (mainly lunch and dinner) are served on a plate called [[thali]] or occasionally on [[Patravali]] or [[Banana leaf]]. Each food item served on the thali has a specific place. In some households, meals begin with a thanksgiving offering of food ([[Naivedhya|Naivedya]]) to the household Gods. The cuisine is of Maharashtrian-Goan type called Malvani (Konkani). There is extensive use of seafood and [[coconut]], as it is locally available. The staple foods of the [[Konkani people]] are rice and fish.
