What to do and see in Goa, India: The Best Things to do for Honeymoon

September 28, 2021 Ying Subia

The sandy coast of Goa is perfect for reclining by the sea. Nestle into a cushioned chair at a beach shack and savor a curry while you sip a Kingfisher beer, watching the sun slip lazily below the horizon. In Old Goa, the beautiful Basilica of Bom Jesus is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a fine example of baroque architecture. Visit during Christmastime to experience a fantastic religious and cultural mash-up of East and West.

Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception

Reviewed By kalindid_12 - Pune, India

One of the most noticeable churches in the heart of the city which can be seen from far and cannot go unnoticed. With its white washed walls and beautiful Portuguese architecture, it is one of must visit places while in Panjim. I was told by our taxi driver that many Bollywood films have been shot here. There are many steps to climb but not difficult to climb. From the top one gets a nice view of the city too. It is beautiful inside too! One can definitely spare 20-30 minutes to see this Church.

Reviewed By n_jaswant - Singapore, Singapore

One of the most instagram worthy location in Goa. It reminded me of shop houses in Little India (Singapore) Just walk past the colorful houses and capture amazing memories. There are few cafes nearby where you can sit and relax. Dine at Down the Road restaurant!

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

This Beach is one of the less visited beaches, secluded and quiet, the beach had white sand and is far from the maddening crowd, where you truly enjoy the sea to the fullest,the highlight is the beautiful sunset.The beach also has one of the best Beach Shacks the ZEBOP by the Sea.

Reviewed By akshay0189 - New Delhi, India

Amazing beach for the sunset, looking for a peace then visit this place. Although it’s far from North Goa. It took around 40 mins via 2 wheeler but must say it is one of the best beach that I have experienced in India. The sunset view is beautiful from this beach. I would recommend you to add this in your bucket-list if you planning to visit Goa.

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!

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.
