The Worli Fort is a fort in Worli, Mumbai, India. Often wrongly assumed to be built by the Portuguese but built by the British around 1675 on the Worli hill. Worli Fort overlooked the Mahim Bay at that time when the city comprised just seven islands. The Fort was used as a lookout for enemy ships and pirates. The centuries-old village is home to one of the oldest communities of fisherfolk still existing in Mumbai. It was after the construction of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link.
