Goa Beaches



Whether you are looking for a secluded hideout or an all-night twirling of your hips, Goa has something for every soul. The white sand beaches, slicked-out casinos, and adrenaline-fueled water sports are the main attractions. Still, the vibrant culture of Goa, with its twilight flea markets, midnight mass, and historic churches, just adds to the charm. This makes Goan nightlife among the most unique experiences globally. To simplify it, we’ll be singling out the five most amazing places to visit in Goa in December 2023. 


  1. Velha Goa or Old Goa-

The old city of Goa is a Unesco World Heritage Site. Founded by Alfonso Albuquerque in the fifteenth century, it is home to some of the finest churches in the world, which provide a keen insight into the rich and glorious past of the state. And since it is Christmas time, the show stoppers include all of the 400 churches decorated with strings, lights, and ribbons. Enjoy the cakes and puddings along with the star of the Christmas dinner, the roasted turkey. Also, don't forget the midnight mass. 


  1. Arambol Beach -

Arambol is known as the hub for the study of yoga, meditation, and alternative therapies on the West Coast. Arambol Beach offers a clean, less crowded, and expansive sandy shoreline. The beach is known for its cleanliness, both in the water and on the sand. Now, Arambol and Morjim beaches are the only places reminiscent of the hippie paradise that Goa once was. 

During November and April, Morjim Beach becomes a nesting ground for many endangered species of turtles, making it the perfect destination for offbeat nature lovers.


  1. The Varca White Sand Beaches 

The “Susegado” way of life permeates every grain of sand in Goa. Stretching across 2 km and forming one of the largest continuous shorelines in south Goa, Varca Beach embodies and cherishes the same spirit. Known for its opulent resorts, the Varca white sand beaches offer excellent options if you want to stargaze all night long with your friends and family. If you want to stay at the most sought-after resort in South Goa The Zuri White Sands Resort and Casino is the place to unpack your bags. Spread over 37 acres, the resort is just a 10-minute stroll from Varca Beach, which remains one of the most beautiful beaches in Goa.

  1. Baga 


Goa is included in the National Geographic magazine list of cities with the best nightlife. To experience the fabled nightlife, Baga has the best clubs and shacks, while Arpora, near Baga, is famous for its midnight flea markets. Hang around the beach if you are looking to get invited to raves. Baga Beach also provides a range of watersports options if you are more inclined towards the adrenaline rush.


  1. Chorao and Diwar Island 


Located on the Mandovi River, this place marks the earliest footfalls of the Portuguese navy. There are old, abandoned stupas used as Jewish synagogues and abandoned temples, which are currently protected archaeological sites. The riverine island also houses a grand fortress church that provides a panoramic view of the island. Visit the island if you want to experience the finely blended, locally sourced original ‘Urrak’ and cashew feni that have been perfected here for generations. Don't miss the Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, as December becomes a hot spot for a variety of birds.
