AboutStreekon
Streekon: Women-led Konkan Responsible Tourism
Streekon is a pioneering women-led social enterprise nestled in the heart of the Konkan region in Maharashtra, India, committed to redefining responsible tourism experiences. Operating out of the picturesque Sindhudurg district, Streekon collaborates with local self-help groups to empower women as leaders in crafting immersive and sustainable journeys.
At Streekon, we firmly believe that women play a pivotal role in building climate resilience, given their unique connection to nature through gendered, reproductive, and socio-religious responsibilities. By championing women’s leadership, we aim to catalyze positive change in the Konkan region, fostering a green economy and driving social entrepreneurship at the grassroots level.
Our commitment to responsible tourism is reflected in our partnerships with local communities, particularly women self-help groups. Together, we design authentic experiences that unveil the richness of rural life, share indigenous knowledge on biodiversity and heritage, promote nature conservation, and minimize our collective carbon footprint.
Immerse yourself in the enchanting beauty of Konkan’s crystal-clear blue seas, lush green forests, and awe-inspiring biodiversity. This coastal paradise is not just a destination; it’s a journey that unveils the secrets of rural life, imparts the wisdom of heritage and biodiversity, and indulges your taste buds with mouthwatering traditional cuisine.
Our responsible tourism journeys to Bankot, Kelshi, Dabhol, and Veldur promise a truly transformative experience. Whether you opt for our half-day or full-day tours, each is tailored to cater to your interests and budget. As a token of our commitment to inclusivity, we offer half-price for children under 6 with mini meals and provide special meals for toddlers and diabetics at no extra cost (only for overnight tours).
Join us at Streekon for an unforgettable voyage, where every step contributes to building a sustainable future, celebrating local traditions, preserving the environment, and fostering empowerment through responsible tourism. Open your heart, as we open our home, and immerse yourself in the conscious magic of Konkan with Streekon.
