The state of Goa covers 3702 square kilometers, with 105 kilometers of coastline, lapping the Arabian Sea. With a temperate climate, diverse landscapes, and wide, sandy, Palm-fringed beaches, it proves to be a popular choice for many visitors. Although primarily a beach destination, Goa has much to offer with temples, churches, waterfalls and forests to explore. Perhaps we can tempt you to stay at one of the following resorts, for a few days at leisure.

Goa, The 131 km long coastline is set on the golden Konkan coast, on the Western Ghats, along the Arabian Sea. This small former Portuguese enclave is one of India's most dazzling tourist mosaics. Goa deserves every bit of the sobriquet 'The Pearl of the East'. The name Goa is derived from the Konkani word 'Goyan', which means a patch of tall grass.

Panaji, Goa's capital Panaji has some fine beaches. To the north of Panaji, lie two of Goa's most popular beaches - Calangute and Baga. These two beaches together stretch for more than 7 km. Stroll along in the morning, as the brilliant rays of the rising sun fall upon the sea, and you wouldn't know the difference between the sea and the sands. Watch fishermen taking in the morning's catch.

SINQUERIM, It is one of the best beaches in Goa with international class facilities for water-skiing, para-sailing, fishing, scuba-diving and wind-surfing.

Calangute, It is, undoubtedly, the most popular beach in Goa. You can stay here in any one of the many resorts and hotels that dot the beach, or you can spend your vacation with one of the families, which own houses near the beach.
