Cabo de Rama Beach

Beautiful pristine beach, no building, not even a hut, no one selling anything to you. If you want to stay a few hours, remember to bring water, fruit .. However, there is a rescue service. The beach is not very long and extends between the ruins of the fort on the left and the rock formations that give it its name: the head and the body of a person lying down

This secluded beach in South Goa is stunningly beautiful! It's 30 Kms away from Madgaon. There's no direct connectivity by road, you need to park your vehicle on a rocky path and climb down a small clif. But when you actually enter the beach, it's beauty mesmerizes you. White sand and blue water surrounded by coconut trees makes this place nothing less than a foreign location. There's just one shack available here with limited menu. This Goan beauty is too good to be true.

We visited Palolem on 7th june,2019 and it was indeed a worth it experience.This place gives you the vibe of real Goa,even though the hubbub around is pretty much less than in north Goa.The journey greets you with mesmerising views of South Goa and Portugese architecture.À

Cavelossim Beach

Reviewed By AnvitaShukla - Toronto, Canada

An amazingly clean, safe and pristine beach of South Goa. Definitely at a drive of about 35kms from Candolim, North Goa, but surely worth a visit. Life guards on the entire beach, very less people and water is great for taking a bath/swim. Absolutely loved it!

Cola Beach

Reviewed By ThroughEyesOfMyCam - New Delhi, India

Cola beach is a remote beach present in cancona village of Goa which gives you a treat to your eyes that is beyond words. This place not only exhibit a Aqua Blue serene beach with coconut tress on its coast but also a green lagoon where you can enjoy swimming!! Cola beach is not a easy place to reach and so has preserved its natural beauty in these many years. You need to trek about 4km to reach this beauty. And if have good driving skills, you can even drive a scooter to this place. It is steep descend with no paved path full of mud. We visited this place during raining season and found quite risky to drive then. The path was little slippery, and so we decided to trek half way to beach. If you happen to trek to the beach, you will witness few hidden gems on the way which is usually missed when on bike . On the way to the beach we encountered a small part of lagoon some one km just before it meets the ocean. The place is scheduled with no tourist or locals near it. You can hear the flow of water and rustling of leaves very clearly here I Weescended near the shallow water body and enjoyed there for almost an hour in the fresh clean water. There was one beach hut on the opposite end of the lagoon where we saw a foreigner meditating with OM mantra in background. About 20 min walk from this place we reached cola beach which withholds one of the most beautiful beach South Goa has to offer you. One end of this beach offers you a endless view of the sea blue coast with no sign of human intervention in between and the other end gives you a glimpse of lagoon made of green water. This perfect blend of salt and sweet water is a perfect dream destination you could ever image. The lagoon of green water is encircled with lush green palm trees behind it which darkens with the depth of jungle. Where to stay : 1) Blue lagoon Resort is one of the best budget options to stay here. They have both beach facing cottages and lagoon facing huts and I can't score anyone of them with more points. Both of them have their own beauty. Estimated cost : Rs 1500-3000 2) Other option is to stay in Dwarka Eco Beach Resort which has equally good and sea view cottages. Estimated cost : Rs 7000-10000 The restaurant on the beach is also owned by Blue Lagoon Resort where you can try some sea food and drinks .

Majorda Beach

Reviewed By srinivasan0610 - Mumbai, India

For all the uninitiated, there are two sides to Goa. One is the vibrant, boisterous, party-in-the-air, market filled North Goa. The other is the quaint, idyllic, time stuck, unaffected-by-tourism, beautiful South Goa. If you have picture of Goa in mind as the one with yellow painted houses situated on a narrow lane that leads to a quite beach lined with palm trees then look no further and head to south Goa. We stayed at Majorda in south Goa which is a beautiful village with all the above said attributes of South Goa. The beach has few shacks and we used couple of those during our stay in Majorda. The sea is safe for kids and the shacks serve the necessary food and drinks to keep you going for the day. There were water sports options too and against those were good. There is Utorda beach which is on the same stretch as Majorda if you want to try that. The shopping options around Majorda is limited. Do bear in mind that if you are visiting off season or other than peak season (which is either December until mid Jan), then you may want to check in with the hotel guys ahead if the shacks would be open. Other than that this place is highly recommended.
