Looking at the “weekend getaway” DUMAS, the south-western part of Surat, sandwiched between the two growth centres- Hazira and upcoming Dream City, a financial hub, and an upcoming international Airport. Within this 18 sq. kilometres of precinct lies a city that sits on the water -1. 11 kilometres of coastline of river Tapi at its western front popular for some beachfront, 2. 20 Lakes well distributed in the precinct 3. Southernmost part forms an estuary - where the river Tapi meets the Arabian Sea. Hence, it provides a perfect opportunity to cater to large footfall of floating population and strategically develop the natural settings of the Dumas town into an integrated Township model with an idea of a recreation hub.
