Ganpati Bappa Moraya...!
This is the correct location of the temple.
Here the whole hill in the back is in form of lord Ganesh, as per "Darshan" or siting given to the devotee by the Lord Ganesh. The Devotee expressed inability to preform pooja of the whole hill, on which the Lord Ganesh asked him to perform pooja & Abhishek of his toe, at the base of the hill. Thus the idol actually worshiped in the temple is actually the toe of the Load Ganesh Hill & hence does not have any shape, but the figure is made with flowers while performing the pooja. If you see at the hill, turning your head to the right, you can see a rough figure of Ganesha, with head towards east side & feet facing the west side, towards sea. Hence one has to go around the hill to have a pradakshina or parikrama of the Lord Ganesha here.
