Fort Tiracol is a Portuguese-era fort that is located near Tiracol village and is on the northern tip of Goa. It situated close to the river Tiracol and can be reached from Querim beach via ferry. This fort is said to have been originally constructed by Khem Sawant Bhonsle in the 17th century but was surrender to the Portuguese after a war in 1746. Since then, it was an important part of the maritime defense of the Portuguese and remained under their control till 1961. After the capture of the fort by de Almeida in 1746, a Chapel for the Holy Trinity was built in the fort's courtyard. It is now known as the Church of St. Anthony. The fort has also been converted into a Heritage hotel now and is a great place for enjoying breakfast or lunch with stunning views of the Arabian Sea.

Kalacha Beach in Arambol is one of the lesser explored beaches of Goa which is a true paradise for beach lovers. This beach is next to the Arambol Sweetwater Lake and is a great place to sunbathe, enjoy a dip in the cool water of the ocean, or go for a swim in the pleasantly cool and clean lake. Moreover, you can hike to the top of the Arambol mountain to view the gorgeous panoramic views. Plus, I love how blue the water was at this beach, unlike the other beaches in Goa. ❤️ How to Reach Kalacha Beach - You can take your scooty to the Arambol Beach and then walk towards the right side where you will find shops and cliffs. There is a raw path leading to the Kalacha beach and you can reach it within 15 minutes from Arambol beach. Best Time to Visit - Personally, I would suggest in the morning as there are fewer people around. Moreover, a swim before the noon will keep you refreshed. Have you been to this beach yet?

One of the best beaches to explore in South Goa, Cola Beach is a golden sand beach with a river flowing nearby. This point of the beach and the river meeting is known as the Blue Lagoon or Emerald Lagoon. It derived its name due to the clear green color of the water that is present here and how calm and soothing the water is. Moreover, there is lush greenery and tall palm trees surrounding the river that gives it a magical vibe.

Visit the beautiful Butterfly Beach that is just a short distance from the beach and is a secluded spot to enjoy. 2. Enjoy a dip in the cool and calm waters of the Cola lagoon and feel all your troubles getting washed away. 3. Take part in water sports here such as kayaking and experience the beauty of the lagoon while being surrounded by the trees. 4. Stay in a resort on this beach to enjoy a relaxed vacation in Goa. 5.

South Goa is one of my favorite destinations till now in India, especially the Palolem Beach. This beach is quite unique and is one of the few places where you would actually see the crystal clear water of the Arabian Ocean. But what I loved even more about this place was how affordable, clean, and less-touristy it was in comparison to its North-side siblings. You could kayak in the ocean for an hour for 200 INR! Moreover, there are several nearby islands to explore on a day trip from here as well. The only drawback is that is not the best accessible place by public transportation so,you would either need to hire a cab or rent a vehicle to reach here. But trust me, this is one of the few beaches that are worth the effort. ❤️ Have you ever been to South Goa? What has been your favorite Goa memory?
On my one month trip to Goa, I visited several amazing places including the offshore Casino @officialcasinopridegoa where I had one of the best nights of my life. . . Here, I got a chance to experience the Holi event like never before. We played Roulette, Black Jack, and so many other amazing games in the casino and it was my first time in a Goan offshore Casino. . . Honestly, it felt like I was in a dream. From the food to the ambiance, everything was just so amazing. And not to forget the amazing performance of @whosunilgrover that made this night even more special for me. . . If you ever visit Goa, make sure that you do spend an evening in this casino. It will be one of your best nights on the trip. ❤️❤️❤️ . . Have you ever been to a casino in Goa or someplace else?

What is it about sunsets that turns me into a pile of mush and reawakens the slightly dormant hopeless romantic in me, everytime I see it? Alas, I haven't figured out it yet. All I know is that whenever I see a sunset, my heart beats a little quicker and my lips automatically curve into a smile. And in that moment, I fall in love with this world. All over again. ❤️❤️❤️
