Travel Agent For India

Goa, also known as 'the pearl of the east,' is a dizzying concoction of sun, sand, spirit and sea. The supply of heady feni never ceases here, and the revelry never stops. Famous for its Gothic churches, crumbling forts, palm-fringed beaches, ferry rides and bubbly folk music, the 131-km-long coastline of Goa is an important stop in every tourist's itinerary. Sun, sand and sea being the major attractions, Goa is a perfect heaven for anyone who wants to relax. A strong Portuguese influence only adds to the quixotic air. Goa happens to be a honeymooner's paradise and special romantic packages like Aguada resort honeymoon package make the offer irresistable.


Some of the most popular sites that must be visited in Goa are:

Goa's exquisite beaches rival any other in the world. They are clean, pure shining stretches of inviting golden and white sand that brook no denial. Calangute, Baga, Colva, Candolim, Anjuna, Dona Paula, Miramar and Agonda are some of the popular ones. Calangute is a 7 km stretch of immaculate golden sand, and Dona Paula, 7 km from Panaji is good for relaxing and sunbathing. Colva beach is 6 km away from Margao and offers good accommodation. While Calangute, Baga, Candolim and Colva are dominated by package tourism, Anjuna is the traditional rave center. Benaulim falls between hype and hip, and is filled with beach shacks and low-key resorts. Arambol in the north and Palolem in the south are quiet idyllic beaches. Other famous beaches include Miramar and Agonda. You may check out Aguada resort honeymoon package and other packages.
