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 colorful parades and folk dances, is a major event. The Feast of St. Francis Xavier in Old Goa is a significant 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.

Beyond the popular beaches, explore the Chapora Fort for stunning sunset views. The less-crowded beaches of Agonda and Patnem offer tranquility. The Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary provides opportunities for wildlife spotting.
