Agonda is a great spot for sunbathing, relaxing and swimming, with still relatively few tourists. Agonda is a nice long pristine stretch of beach. Though the waters here might not be the most ideal place for swimming (you have better beaches with calm waters in Goa), Agonda is definitely a place for those who want to quit on a Monday morning.

Anjuna Beach - Close to the Chapora Fort, its key attraction is a magnificent Albuquerque Mansion built in 1920, flanked by octagonal towers and an attractive Mangalore tile-roof. Anjuna was the second home (and main location) of the hippies in Goa in the 1960s and 1970s, after other destinations like Calangute got too "crowded" for them. It is still the venue of a (vastly-changed and more mainstream) flea market held each Wednesday. In the nearby village of Arpora, two colourful Saturday night bazaars are held in the non-monsoon seasons. This is still part of "alternative" Goa, though charter and other tourists also visit in increasing numbers to "get a feel of the hippy years".

a quiet beach in North Goa near Pernem. Not too many facilities in terms of hotels or eateries. The water is shallow and good for swimming. Arambol is not what it used to be, there are plenty of shops, eateries and places to stay. It has in-fact become huge and not as peaceful as it used to be, but it has turned into a cultural hub. It is like goa within goa now.

Built in 1605, this Basilica has the mortal remains of St. Francis Xavier, one of the patron Saints of Goa. It is known for its distinctive baroque architecture that has a display of architectural pieces in wood, stone, gold and granite. Francis Xavier died while aboard a ship and his body was taken to Malacca but it was decided that he should be buried in Goa. After 2 years, it was noticed that his body had not decomposed, that was no less than a miracle. After every 10 years, his body is put for public display in a silver casket designed in the 17th century.

Goa's second-largest wildlife sanctuary is at Cotigao. It's terrain is fairly plain, with hills in the south and east -- at one very end of Goa. Much of the sanctuary is covered with dense forests, with a few open grass lands. Forest crown density is often over 50%. Some trees, Goa's loftiest, touch 30 metres. If you go with the intention of seeing some of India’s legendary fauna here, then you could be in for a disappointment, as spotting the more famous wild animals is not extremely common. But the expansive forestland is a welcome change

Now here's an eatery that's as old as the hills, and can still boast of the same brilliant food, service and ambience that it started with. The ambience is great, the staff friendly, and if hearsay is to be believed, the sunsets to die for. But enough about that! Let's talk food. By their own admission, Souza Lobo specializes in Sea food and authentic Goan fare. Their Prawn Curry Rice, Masala Fried Fish and Crab are to die for. The Souza Lobo Lobster Thermidor does well with guests from all parts of the world. Two other favourites are Stuffed Avocado and Baked Crab.

The Mediterranean themed Taj Exotica has an appealing laid back south Goa location, on unspoiled Varca beach. Guests rave about the exemplary personalized service. The hotel also has an excellent range of facilities including golf course, spa, swimming pool, and evening entertainment. If you really want to indulge, book into the Sunset Villa with its own private plunge pool. Otherwise, the standard Garden villas at the far end of the property offer a great deal more privacy than the more expensive Pool villas. Room rates start from around $220 per night for a double, including tax, depending on the time of year. Expect to pay around $330 per night for a room in December.
