Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR)is the largest coastal city in India. The region experienced tremendous growth over the years due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. MMR is also the major center of economic activity in India. As a result there is a continuous and constant in .ux of population from the rest of the country. The high population density and uneven growth rate have resulted in serious environmental problems in the MMR coastal region. This paper discusses several aspects of the MMR coastal region that suffer from a wide variety of environmental as well as socio-economic problems due to unplanned and non-integrated sectoral developmental activities over the years.These problems need to be addressed in developing an Integrated Coastal Management plan for the MMR coastal region.
