For Mumbaikars travelling towards Gorai Beach, Essel World or Water Kingdom, this is the best station to go from. Instead of going by a long roadway through Bhayander, people can alight at Borivali, go to Borivali station (WEST), take BEST Bus no 294/247 (10 min frequency) or autorikshaws also available, to reach Gorai Creek Ferry Terminal and take ferry to Gorai Jetty for Gorai Beach further taking autorikshaw to Gorai beach, take ferry to essel world for essel world/water kingdom/global vipassana pagoda.

For Thane people, instead of coming to Borivali, it would be convenient to come to Bhayander railway station and take MSRTC/MBMT buses (road route) plying to Gorai/Esselworld
