The tiny Indian state of Goa is famous throughout the world for its fabulous beaches. Offering incredible ocean views, a variety of water sports, popular nightclubs, wonderful food and other attractions, the beaches draw thousands upon thousands of holiday visitors each year.
When most people think of a beach, they imagine sand, sun, and sparkling blue water. Maybe they picture scantily-clad sunworshippers and palm trees. The beaches in Goa have much more to offer. The larger beaches have shops, restaurants and entertainment venues. Some of the trendiest nightclubs and lounges are located on beaches. In fact, Goa has one of the hottest nightclub scenes in the world, with theme parties and huge beach raves occuring during the height of the tourist season.
A number of cities have developed around the more popular beaches. Here visitors will find the perfect blending of modern convenience with the natural beauty of the ocean. Some five star hotels Goa are located on the beach or in the nearby cities, making ocean access (and ocean view rooms) easily accessible to travlers.
One of the benefits of the extensive coastline is the abundance of fresh seafood. Goan cuisine features many curries and stews that showcase shellfish and the freshest “catch of the day.”
Ocean sports are, of course, quite popular in Goa. Other than monsoon season, divers flock to Goa to explore is amazing shipwrecks and coral reefs. The multitude of marine species around the area make it even more attractive to snorkellers and divers. Others prefer to indulge in motorized sports such as speed boating and jet skiing. Parasailing and windsurfing are also quite popular.
Visitors can choose between exploring an ancient fort, enjoying a delicious Indian meal, or strolling along the beach during a stunning sunset before dancing all night at a hot club. The Goan coast offer these experiences and so many more.
