Best Places to Visit in Goa this Winter

Out of everything you have possibly fantasized till date, it is probable that you could grab a hundred times better things here: in Goa. I didn’t want to drag the topic right to its beaches, but its magnetic pull got me to do it. Now that we are talking about Goa’s Beaches, they are more of a canvas of your own. You can paint any of your masterpieces here and dig into your heart and memories forever. You may sit in the secluded seashore or attend exuberant parties in the shacks, or opt for a romantic candle light dinner (Though the enticing breeze would blow off the candle, but it’s okay! you can go for a modern version. Perhaps “Smartphone Torch Light Dinner”) 

While the beats of EDM move the state, there are chants that soothe it as well. Goa is not only home to best clubs and casinos; it has got some really enlightening holy sites. And yes! Its past has given birth to amazing monuments which today hold national importance. And with the intense amount of foreign tourists, we can say “International importance”.

There is no second thought needed. If we are talking about the best beaches of India, we surely have Goa in top considerations. Notorious tidal waves firmly hit the beige sand here, and the beaches are constantly charged up with tourist activities. And in some beaches, there are no activities at all; just some travelers laying down, sunbathing and reading novels, or having beer. If Goa was a person, he would say, “You want to shout and party? Come and get it. You want peace? Come and get it too.”

You cannot point out at any beach of Goa and claim “That’s not nice”. It is likely that you prefer one beach over other. So, Goa’s most preferred or popular beaches are Baga, Anjuna, Candolim, Mandrem, Vegator and Calangute.

When you hop into Goa’s market, you will get puzzled. Puzzled, not because of the dearth but rather the vastness of the variety for what you are looking for. Right from local flea markets to international brands, you can never feel any shortage. Also, the local signature charms of Goa, like the bamboo hat, almonds, beach t-shirts and everything else would make you totally ignore the pain in your legs that you get from walking miles. 

Some of the best markets of Goa are Calangute Bazaar, The Saturday Night Market, Wednesday Flea Market (Anjuna) and Friday Mapusa Market.

·         Casino and Clubs
