No doubt Goa is all about a beach holiday and scenery. We recommend you also take a stroll around Old Goa city and check out the must-see Aguada Fort. Take a day to bike around the scenic route such as Vagator-Chopara. At night Mambo-Titos area is a popular place to visit or take a night walk around the Baga beach.

Goa hosts many vibrant festivals. Shigmo, a spring festival with colourful parades and folk dances, is a significant event. The Feast of St. Francis Xavier in Old Goa is a major religious celebration. Many local village festivals also take place throughout the year.
Our top picks of Goa beaches according to popularity are Baga Beach, Morjim Beach, Calangute Beach, Palolem Beach, Majorda Beach, and Sinquerim Beach. Baga beach is known for a romantic night walk in Goa and Agoda beach is a hub of all sea-related activities in Goa.
What traditional local food should you try in Goa, India?
Goan cuisine is a delightful mix of flavours. Try fish curry rice, a staple dish; vindaloo, a spicy pork curry; Bebinca, a layered coconut cake; and feni, a local alcoholic beverage made from cashew or coconut.

The first is you can book at one of the hotels located close to the center where most of the flea markets take place on different days of the week. If you prefer to choose a hotel located off-site, we recommend choosing a hotel in the South of Goa from where you can take a taxi or train to the city center, shop your heart out and get back for lunchtime.
Are there any unknown or hidden places that should be on your list in Goa, India?
Beyond the popular spots, explore the Cabo de Rama Fort for its stunning views, or discover the serene beaches of Patnem or Cola. The Chapora Fort, known for its scenic beauty, offers a quieter experience than some of the more crowded forts.
