  • Goa hides umpteen surprises in every corner. This
    beautiful destination and its warm-hearted
    localities welcome tourists with open arms and
    big smiles. Not just to the Indian crowd, yet it
    also offers a heavy amount of tourism from
    international peers as well. Plus, you can get to
    witness a number of family beaches too packed
    with families engaging in several fun
    activities. In fact, the only question you are

1. Sinquerim Beach
  • Sinquerim Beach is an exquisite beach located at
    about 13 kilometres north of Panaji, the capital
    city of Goa. Near this beach is the most famous
    Aguada Fort, a Portuguese Fort that was built in
    the earlier days to defend an attack from the sea
    route. Being a perfect example of engineering
    marvel, it adds up to the scenic backdrop to the
    site. Although the beach does get a little
    crowded during season time due to tourists
    visiting this fort, it is quieter and peaceful on
    the other days of the year and should not be
    missed on a visit to Goa.
  • Known to be a clean beach providing a nice view
    of dolphin spotting sights, it is a must visit
    especially when peace is something you are
    looking for. With a vast expanse of golden sand,
    you get to try out a number of water rides and
    other water adventures. Some of the other fun
    activities worth mentioning are snorkelling,
    banana ride, and parasailing. When you feel
    hungry after the exciting and exhausting
    water-adventures, head straight to the food
    stalls to try out some quick Goan-munchies that
    are utterly sumptuous and worth a try!

2. Baga Beach
  • A charming family beach, the Baga Beach accounts
    to be one of the most alluring beaches in the
    state, appearing like it has come straight out of
    a painting. It is considered to be the extension
    of the Calangute Beach itself since both of these
    lies on the same stretch of the shore. The beach
    gets its name from the Baga Creek, which meets
    the Arabian Sea at the northern end of the beach.
    Baga beach is popular among tourists because of
    the fact that it hosts plenty of watersports
    activities like jet-ski, banana boat ride,
    parasailing, and speedboat ride. It also houses
    some of the most bewitching luxury resorts, spa
    hubs, and beach cottages.
  • It is incredibly famous for its nightlife.
    Hosting some of the most amazing pubs and clubs,
    it is hugely popular with the younger crowds
    because of its cool nightlife. Some must-try
    signature places are Brittos, Titos, and Mambos
    as they have left an indelible print in the
    hearts of party goers. It is also famous for its
    designer stores as well as its street-side
    markets where you can shop till your feet ache
    and your wallet grumbles! Grab a lip
    smacking brunch at Infantaria a highly
    recommended eatery, relax by the beach all day,
    and in the evening let out the party animal
    stashed in you come alive.

3. Vagator Beach
  • If you are on the lookout for some revitalising
    beach holiday destinations in Goa, well then,
    Vagator Beach is just the place for you. The
    northernmost beach of Bardez Taluka, the Vagator
    Beach is 21 kilometres from Panaji and is
    characterised by a combination of its soft white
    sands and imposing but beautiful rocky cliffs.
    The beach is further bifurcated into two major
    parts, namely Little Vagator, alias as Ozran
    Beach, and Big Vagator.
  • The monotony of fine white sand is broken by
    beautifully contrasting black rocks. The lush
    greenery around this beach will definitely take
    your breath away. Resembling that of a crescent
    moon, the tourists come here to relish the
    beautiful sunset points and sumptuous seafood to
    die for. Being an eclectic pot of local art,
    music, and nightlife, it speaks volumes about its
    rustic beauty and picturesque greenery. Its
    serenity and tranquillity allures those who are
    in real need of refuge from the hustling beach
    cultures. It is well-famed for housing the
    Chapora Fort famously referred to as the Dil
    Chahta Hai Point. (Bollywood movie.)

3. Vagator Beach
  • While the sweeping view that the sea generates
    from the Vagator Cliff is undoubtedly splendid,
    tourists also swarm to Vagator for its myriad
    dining options and an overall upbeat vibe at the
    beach shacks and parties. It has recently gained
    a special place of preference in the hearts of
    tourists and visitors for its food. One of the
    most famous places to see is, of course, Thalassa
    a quaint and artistic Greek themed beach
    restaurant with beach seating and stunning
    gourmet adventures. Moreover, there are many
    other gourmet places serving up quality local and
    international food such as Fusion Restaurant,
    Villa Blanche Bistro, and Antares Beach
    Restaurant. Also, dont miss the famous Sunburn
    Festival that is organized in the last week of
    December every year.
  • The culture of Vagator is largely defined by its
    aura, rave parties, and amazing beach life all
    of which you need to experience when you visit
    this very place. Vagator Beach undoubtedly
    attracts people from all over the globe and
    promises you a day full of fun, frenzy, and an
    unforgettable rendezvous with the waves!

4. Palolem Beach
  • Visited mainly by the fisherman and foreign
    tourists, Palolem gets to enjoy its own piece of
    serenity. With waves sloshing out on the rocky
    shore, this beach doesnt easily get hit by the
    fast currents, eventually making it easier for
    average swimmers to dive in and splash. It is
    famous for many fun activities that are yet to be
    discovered.
  • Called to be The Southern Gem of Goa, it is a
    white sand paradise on the southern tip of Goa,
    approximately 38 kilometres from Madgaon in
    Cancona and is among the most favourite
    destinations for travellers seeking peace and
    quiet. No wonder it sees endless hordes of
    foreign as well as domestic travellers that make
    the quaint thatched roof cottages on the shore,
    their home. 
  • Its mile-long shoreline gifts you with
    opportunities to eat, relax, and chill in or
    spend some time with your loved ones in the
    water. It can be noted that while families mostly
    stick to the northern end of the beach,
    considering the fact that it is a family beach,
    the rest of the backpackers and solo tourists
    occupy the central and southern part of the
    beach, which is known for its beach parties and
    entertainment. Although the party scene isnt
    that massive on this stretch of the beach, the
    Silent Noise Parties held at Neptune Point draws
    a considerable crowd.

12
4. Palolem Beach
  • Until the late 19-century, Palolem was a
    relatively virgin and an unexplored destination.
    Nonetheless, the beach soon gained popularity due
    to its serene beauty and off-white sands.
    Cossetted within lofty highlands on either side,
    the Palolem Beach is enveloped with calm
    surroundings. One of the most common attractions
    here is the ferry rides that take visitors to
    witness dolphins and the elusive Butterfly and
    Honeymoon Beaches. Tourists can also indulge in
    watersports like paragliding and windsurfing at
    this beach. Hiking around this beach is one of
    the most popular things to do in Goa.
  • Palolem Beach boasts of two islands where
    travellers can visit by hiking or canoeing. The
    Honeymoon Island is popular among couples and
    offers lovely views of the horizon. You can
    visit the Monkey Island by a small hike and it is
    known for the sunset point. It is again a
    beautiful place to relax and enjoy the beauty of
    nature.

5. Morjim Beach
  • Said to be the Home of the Olive Ridley
    Turtles, Morjim Beach is undoubtedly one of the
    most tranquil beaches of North Goa and is located
    around 12 kilometres away from Morjim through the
    Duler-Marna-Siolim Road. This earns Morjim Beach
    another moniker, namely Turtle Beach as it serves
    as nesting habitat for Olive Ridley Turtles. The
    nesting season for the Olive Ridley Turtles
    usually begins in September, although sometimes
    it can be as late as January, and lasts until
    March.
  • Morjim accounts to be one of the three beaches
    that are the nesting sites of the Olive Ridley
    Turtleson the Goan coastline, the other two being
    Agonda and Galgibaga in the Southern half. Thus,
    this time of the year is popular among tourists
    who wish to see the nesting. However, as the
    Olive Ridley Turtles is categorized as vulnerable
    in the Red List, Morjim Beach is a protected area
    on which beach parties and shacks are banned. The
    ones that exist are farther away from the sea and
    do not play overly loud music.

5. Morjim Beach
  • The beach is also locally known as Little
    Russia as a significant number of Russians visit
    the area and make it a point to stay here for
    more than a month. Consequently, the place is
    full of Russian signboards and shops that sell
    Russian cuisine. There is a multitude of
    restaurants offering quality cuisine and the
    promise of good time. You can easily go for a
    quick dip in the sea, experience a day by the
    beach sipping chilled beer, and even indulge in
    some shopping on the beach street. Owing to the
    shallow depth, kite surfing makes for an exciting
    activity at the Morjim Beach. Some of the
    must-visit places in Morjim include Beach Street,
    Lazy Dog Cafe, La Plage, The Rice Mill, and many
    more such eateries that offer delicious cuisine
    and memorable time. Also, some of the fun
    activities you can try out is bird-watching.
    Sight some rare species like Kingfisher, Cuckoo,
    Sand Plover, and Sandpipers.
  • To put Goa in words can be challenging as it is a
    small world in itself. Simply put, it is
    everything that you can ask for in a heaven on
    earth. The aforementioned details should be
    enough for igniting the urge to swing by once.
    Plan your trip right away and let Goa welcome you
    with all its charm and love.
