The Beaches of Goa

Goa’s coastline that runs a whole 125 kilometers is dotted with beautiful beaches both in the north and in the south. The Palolem beach is perhaps the most beautiful of all the beaches in Goa. This beach is for the most part virgin, with tourists and fishermen whose dwellings are shacks along the seashore. Most tourists come to Goa to have an experience of this sun kissed state.

Panaji – The Capital

It is Goa’s capital. This is where the cultures of India, and by extension the world, meet. If your intention is to be entertained, this place would do well in your scorecard. The beginning of each year is particularly a great time to visit Panaji. Panaji comes to life during this time of the year at the “Fontainhas Festival”. This festival brings together singers, musicians and dancers from across India to participate in the festival.

Old Goa

Old Goa takes you through a journey back in time of the Portuguese and Christian villages. You get to see the splendid churches and cathedrals that have a long history.
