GOA – a multifaceted paradise
“Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind.” –
Seneca
Whenever somebody mentions about Goa, our mind gets
mushroomed with the thoughts of uncurbed parties and loud music, but what if I
told you that Goa has a latent tranquil side, which is irreconcilable from the
pre conceived notion that we have about the alluring place. Goa is for
everyone, from a teenager to an elderly couple travelling post retirement. So
when is the perfect time to visit the high spirited place? The best time to
experience the magic with your family is during May, June and July. During this
time the crowd is less as the onset of monsoon marks the closing of adventure
sports, but don’t fret Goa has much more to offer. Lesser the crowd, fuller the wallet! During
these months, even the uber hotels reduce their tariffs to minimum which means
you can enjoy that pacifying hospitality without burning a hole in your pocket.
Mesmerizing, right?
So what is so magnetic about Goa? It has countless number of
majestic beaches, Baga and Calangute, to name a few lively ones, where you can
buy the oh-so-amazing goa merchandise and souvenirs by the beach and get a
tattoo of your choice! The gigantic waves will surely give you an adrenaline
rush. You can live your dream of playing beach volleyball in beaches like
Miramar. Majority of opulent hotels provide a private path to the nearby
beaches which makes visiting the beach at any time a whole lot easier. You can
also visit serene beaches like Candolim to pacify your soul and connecting
with nature. Don’t miss the majestic experience of watching the sunset by the
beach, the sun vanishing in the colossal water body. Collect shells, brush up
your photography skills because you’ll get ample of chances to use them. The
moment when the stream of water touches your feet, your senses take a journey
to paradise. Visit as many beaches as you can as every beach has a lot to
offer!
Goa has a diverse past owning to the Portuguese rule.
Magnificent churches and picturesque locations should be on the pinnacle of
your checklist. Be it the popular Aguada fort, which is every movie director’s
favourite spot to shoot those Bollywood numbers or Dona Paula Jetty where you
are surrounded by the mighty ocean. You can go to various beautiful churches
and connect to your inner self, Basilica de Bom Jesus and Our lady of
Immaculate Conception are some of the well-known churches to visit. The vibrant
architecture of Goa is an example of its diverse culture and heritage, don’t
miss out any opportunity to click Instagram-ready pictures near the pretty
roadside places.
Goa is home to a lot of local delicacies. The speciality of
Goa is no doubt the supple and fresh sea food, cooked in coconut oil. Make sure
you taste the local delicacy and embark your palate on an exotic journey.
Vegetarian? Don’t sweat it! Goa provides a lot of options for all the
vegetarians out there. It has some stupendous pure vegetarian restaurants and
sit outs. There is never a bad time to relax and rejuvenate, Goa is home to
many splendid spa retreats which offer combos for families. A family which
