Anjuna Beach– This beach is characterized by jagged laterite boulders and bewitching red cliffs which overlook the sandy shoreline with the waves pounding them repeatedly. The relaxed vibe of the locals here, combined with the electric vibe in the air, is sure to win your heart. The beach also offers tremendous options for exciting activities such as parasailing, yachting and windsurfing, which can be enjoyed on a direct payment basis.
Fort Aguada, Goa– Albeit Fort Aguada presently serves as the Central Jail, it has witnessed numerous historical battles and episodes which have directly impacted the fort itself. Built in 1609-12, it's the largest and the best preserved bastion in Goa. It was built with the intention of protecting Old Goa from external enemy attacks. You can also enjoy water sports at Baga / Calangute Beach.
Then there is the Vagator Beach, which boasts a lovely silver sandy stretch with enormous red cliffs overlooking it. One can also find two fresh bubbling springs in close proximity to the shore that appear quite enchanting.
In Mapusa, the visitors can select from a wide range of sightseeing options from bustling bazaars to historical forts that are visually appealing, besides being great historical attractions.
In the Mapusa Bazaar, one can experience the sights and sounds of a rural bazaar while getting hold of some authentic Goan ware. The entire town comes alive with the enthusiastic calls of vendors showcasing their goods, with the dusty pavements lined with colorful stacks of fresh fruit and spices.
Located in close proximity to Mapusa about 12km from Panaji is the Shri Bodgeshwar Temple. The temple, located in a lush green environment, is home to a small shrine dedicated to Kanakeshwar Baba or Bodgeshwar, locally known as Bongini.
Bodgeshwar, who is also known as "Angavani", stands for the one in whose name vows are made and who fulfills the desires of the devotees. The people here hold a belief that all their prayers and wishes will be fulfilled. This is also the reason why thousands of devotees are attracted to this temple. Return to the resort for an overnight stay.
