Goa is a city in India which is widely popular for parties. If you're visiting here, don't miss out on visiting these places to get the best out of your vacation.
This beach is also called the Tiger Beach. Although this place is little off the maps, once you visit the beach, your efforts are totally paid off. The beach is deserted and very picturesque. If you want to spend time with your partner or even a group of friends, this is one of the best places south Goa can offer. What's best is that there are many South Goa resorts in the vicinity such as Alila Diwa Goa. This beach certainly becomes one of the must-visit places in Goa.
Harvelam Falls is another wonder of nature tucked inside the jungles of Goa. It is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the city. Harvelam is located in the Sanquelim Village of North Goa. The temple of Rudreshwar and the Arvalem caves are in the vicinity. The waterfall is not very popular among travellers because of its location. Because of this, the place is very quiet and tranquil.
This is an ancient fort in South Goa and one of the most relaxing places in the area. From the vantage point of the fort, the beach of Cabo De Rama looks splendid. There are old canons and ruins of houses used by the Portuguese troops back in the 1600s. The fort is an ideal spot to take Instagram worthy photos and for a picnic with your friends.
The Arvelam Caves date back to the 6th century. They are also known as the Pandava Caves. No one is sure about the origin of these. Some say it was used by the Buddhists because of the giant Buddha statue in front while others argue it was the Pandavas that used the cave. However, the caves are historically important and there is an air of mystery about them.
This is one of the best hiking trails in Goa. Although there aren't many animals in the sanctuary, the tall trees and wildflowers make it a great place to relax. You might spot a sloth, hyena or a monkey along your way. Visit here to spend the day reconnecting with nature. The Wildlife sanctuary is in the Canacona district in South Goa.
This is one of the most exciting places to visit when you're in Goa. There are more than 130 different types of butterflies in the conservatory. This is an ideal place if you have kids travelling with you. You have to walk through a forest and you will see hundreds of butterflies flying all over the place. The conservatory is truly enchanting.
This is a must visit place for any adventure-seeker. You can take a backwater cruise along the Cumbaruja Canal. There are mangroves and marshes you have to ride through and you will see crocodiles snoozing on the bank. This is the best place for any nature lover.
This is another place in Goa that is perfect for hiking, trailing or even lounging with your friends. Chorla Ghats is a part of the Sahyadri Mountain Range in North Goa. The view Chorla offers you is breathtaking. Pack your hiking shoes because you sure don't want to miss this.
The beach is famous for its white beach and crystal waters. This is the best place to spend an evening with your friends because the sunset at Mobor is amazing. There are many shops that sell handicrafts and souvenirs as well. The beach is in South Goa.
There are many rare herbs and spices growing in the plantation. There are fruit orchards for you to walk through and you will notice many strange plants growing here. This is a great place to sightsee. So, make time to visit the Savoi Spice Plantations while you party in the beaches of Goa.
