Oyster Rock

It is heavily fortified, and owned by the Indian Navy.

For a short while, the islet was used as a naval museum.

[citation needed] Every time when the Admiral of The Fleet sails out or in with the Naval fleet, a guard of honour is conducted with a 21 gun salute with sailors standing on the entire perimeter of the island.

[citation needed] In 2008, the Mumbai Port Trust proposed to set up an International Cruise Terminal at Oyster Rock.

[1] However, in 2009, the Indian Navy refused to grant permission citing security concerns in the aftermath of the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
