Khoda is a small village between Murud-Janjira and Rajpur. To reach proceed on the way to Janjira fort, and just as you cross the bridge you will come to a village. Take a left or ask someone for directions to the jetty and you'll reach there. The beach/jetty overlooks the Janjira fort too.
The Jetty
The village has a small virgin beach (which possibly might get nearly sunk during high tide) and a jetty. This jetty now in ruins used to be frequently used earlier by ships sailing in from Mumbai and other places to Murud. It might have been even used to go to-and-fro to the fort before the Rajpur village came into existence.
Now it's only used by fishermen.
The jetty area:
Boats that were used half a century ago. My aunt said these were the very boats in which she travelled during her childhood.

Zoomed view of Janjira from jetty:
Barnacles all around the rocky part of sea-shore. Note these are very sharp so better not go into the rocky part:

The beach of Khoda
Nice, small and clean. That's no garbage in the pic, just shells.
Fine beautiful brownish-white sand
We had gone just at sunrise time and I think it was a perfect time to come at this place.
