Goa is without doubt India’s West Coast paradise. From the glorious sands of Anjuna beach to the electric nightlife of Tito’s Road, there are many well-loved places to visit in Goa that has long been popular with holiday goers. There’s so much to experience in this special part of India that it can be hard to know where to begin. Whether you’re planning a family holiday, a quick weekend getaway with friends or looking to spend some cherished moments with that special someone, Goa has all the ingredients for a perfect holiday recipe.

All the beaches of Goa are beautiful to enjoy. If you like partying and wish to be in the mix with people from all over the world, then head to Candolim Beach which is the third most beautiful beach in Goa and one of the best beaches in the world.

If you prefer a calmer and more remote area then go to Palolem and Aagonda Beach which are about 65 km south from Panjim and near Karwar in Karnataka. They are the top two beautiful beaches in Goa.

You can also enjoy Calenquette, Baga, Vagattor and Anjjuna beaches in North Goa and Miramar, Major da, Benaulim and other beaches in South Goa.

For me I prefer Baga. If you are looking for a beach where you can relax and bask some sun, listening to the waves, Baga Beach is one of the best beaches in Goa for a family and friends day out.
