Detailed Solution

The correct option is 2nd, as the northern part of Eastern coast of India is the Konkan coast. It runs along Goa's, Maharashtra's, and Karnataka's western shores. The Western Ghats and the Arabian Sea are the eastern and western boundaries, respectively. The northern boundary is the Daman Ganga river that drains into the Arabian Sea, and the Aghanashini river, one of the world's virgin rivers, is the southern boundary of the Konkan coast. Konkan coast is also named Maharashtra coast and Goa coast regionally. It has a submerged coastline due to rising sea levels. It has the Thane creek near Mumbai, which is a natural harbour. Being one of the largest creeks in Asia and home to a large variety of birds, Thane creek is a proposed Ramsar site.
