Goa Beaches
|
| |
|
Vagator |
|
Sun Kissing Beach |
| |
What is the
trademark of Goa is very well reflected in Vagator which is one of the
most beautiful of the soft white sand beaches that Goa is famous for.
Whenever you see a picture of a beach typically dotted with palm trees and sea green water with people in water clothes and having fun
in water, you will see all this and much more in the Vagator beach.
This
beach is just like one out of a picture postcard. The inhabited area
around this beach is lush green, dotted with coconut palms, friendly
farmhouses and pictorial Portuguese bungalows. On the north-west corner of the city are the remains of the Chapora fort. The fort is
well preserved and offers some splendid views from its ramparts. A ten
minute walk south of the Big Vagator is Ozran, also known as 'Little
Vagator'. This end of the beach is relatively secluded and has a row
of cafes catering to the tourists who are here during the day. One
going to Goa cannot miss visiting the Vagator beach. Vagator is a good
vacation option for sea enthusiasts. It is an ideal place for people
with small budgets but lots of time with them. It
is an attractive little bay between rocky headlands with a series of
small beaches with shady palms. Chapora Fort is on a hill at the
northern end. Now in ruins, the fort stands on the southern bank old
the Chapora River. It was originally made by Adil Shah. Later on the
Mughals and Portuguese used it. Other beaches of Goa are
equally beautiful and worth a see. |

| A final note, please
treat these lovely beaches as your backyard and keep them clean. We
have lost innumerable natural resources to our own be. |
