What is worth knowing about the beaches of Goa?

  • All the beaches of Goa are the property of the state, so entry to them is free, no matter who told you what. You will have to pay only if you want to use additional facilities, such as a sun lounger, umbrella, etc. of the hotel or cafe in whose ownership they are located.
  • It is best to go to Goa in the "tropical winter" (from October to March) - this time is the warmest and practically without precipitation.
  • Experienced travelers advise not to stop at any one area, and travel to different resorts in the South or North, as all the beaches are very diverse, and everywhere you can find good and affordable accommodation and interesting attractions.
  • For convenient traveling around the resorts of Goa, it is better to rent a moped. It is fast, convenient and inexpensive. The usual international license is required.
  • With children, it is better to go to the South side, as it is considered safer, quieter and cleaner.

Anjuna Beach

The natural assets of this corner of the state are strikingly diverse and positively energizing. Here you will see wide beaches with fine gray sand, on which you can see dark divots, mountains and rocks with stones rolled on the shore and a lot of luxurious greenery.

Despite the gentle entrance to the water, the depth comes quite quickly. Swimming enthusiasts rate the beach five stars because of this. Entertainment on this beach is represented by the standard youth beach set: diving, water transportation and numerous beach parties. This beach will appeal to rowdy youth and active travelers.

Colva Beach

Colva beach is one of the best beaches in Goa for family vacations, where both kids and adults can enjoy. Colva beach is exclusively meant for romantics. Imagine a candlelit dinner, a violin playing against the sound of the water and then a long walk along the shoreline - this is how visitors to this beach often spend their vacations.

In addition, this oldest beach in Goa has something for everyone, from extreme sports such as skiing, paragliding and parasailing to simple leisurely relaxation. This is why the beach tops the list of the most popular places to visit in Goa.

Varca beach, 10 kilometers long, with white and fine sand is very popular in Goa. The sea here is shallow, sometimes there may be a not very strong underwater current. The beach is equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable vacation, including a lifeguard post.

And the adjacent areas offer guests luxurious four and five-star hotels, bars and luxury restaurants. There are not many vacationers here, so this region is popular among famous politicians and world-class stars.

Kavelosim Beach

This beautiful beach is located away from the noise of the city, 12 kilometers from Benaulim. It is unparalleled not only for its cleanliness and excellent infrastructure, but also for its fantastic views.

The coast covered with fine white sand and surrounded by black rocks - looks very spectacular. At the same time Kavelosim, unlike Varka, cannot be called a quiet place.

Surrounded by palm and fruit groves, this 30-kilometer long sandy coastal strip is lined with coves and lagoons.

Despite the fact that it is one of the most popular beaches in Goa, it is always clean, calm and quiet. Entertainment is represented by small cafes and restaurants, where guests are offered seafood dishes, as well as rental shops for water sports equipment.

Putnam Beach

Putnam Beach is the little sister of the more famous Palolem Beach, and we're writing about it for a reason. Because while the little beach's secret is no longer so secret, it's still much less visited than Palolem Beach.

Here you'll find fine sand, clear water, sprawling palm trees and a laid-back atmosphere. The beach is sandwiched between two cliffs creating the most beautiful surroundings.

Here you will find several yoga retreats and the atmosphere is relaxed and slowed down. Behind the beach you will find several small cozy stores and kiosks, as well as a great selection of beach huts called 'beach huts' and restaurants.

Butterfly Beach

Don't forget to visit the small gorgeous Butterfly Beach, which is only a short boat ride away with local anglers from Putnam Beach. Set sail early in the morning, then you'll have the opportunity to relax on a deserted beach beach to yourself and, if you're lucky, meet the playful dolphins that love to paddle off Butterfly Beach, where there's no noisy local boat activity like on other beaches.

As the name suggests, the beach is particularly famous for the large number of butterflies living in the beautiful natural surroundings.

Sinkerim Beach

Sinkerim Beach is known for its picturesque sunsets and wide shoreline - over 110 meters. The sand here is soft and yellow, the sunset into the Arabian Sea is not harsh, but in a few places it is difficult to enter the water due to soil erosion.

The beach has all the necessary infrastructure: sunbeds, toilets and changing areas. Cafes and bars are worse - there are few of them.

Sinkerim beach in North Goa is perfect for lovers of active rest. Here you can go diving, snorkeling, surfing and riding on banana boats. Also those who love hiking, fishing and water procedures will find it interesting to relax in this area.
