Also called the Fort of St Jerome, Nani Daman is situated on the bank of Daman Ganga river. It is a small fort with high and elegant stone walls, three bastions and two huge gateways. Spread over an area of about 12,250 sq m, the fort boasts two magnificent human figurines. Deriving its name from St Jerome of the Catholic order, the fort is home to a splendid statue of the saint at the front gate and houses a Catholic Church of Our Lady of the Sea that is known for its refined panelling. Other attractions near the fort include Gandhi Park, lying near the Nani Daman Jetty.

 

Tourists can also visit a fish market nearby that has a backdrop of fishing boats anchored on the shore.
