About the book

It was in the 1960s that the magic of Gnu’s beaches was discovered by people often referred to as hippies’: in a way they fashioned Goa as a tourist destination for the more mundane travellers, Over the decades, visitors have come in droves to be enchanted by the drama of the sinking sun on isolated beaches and seaside cliffs: by the fusion of old Indian traditions and later Catholic practices: by the atmosphere of fun and action co-existing with sea-deep calm and repose: by the stately churches and the Portuguese-flavoured streets: and by tine cheap booze and the inimitable feni.

While it’s true that there is life here beyond sun, surf and sand the Goa inland, its village life, culture and magnificent heritage (and we do bring you snippets of these) it’s on Goa busy beaches that the business of leisure is pursued in right earnest, Just so that you do not lose yourself here (only in the more prosaic sense of the word ‘lose’), we have divided Goan beaches into two sections: the North and the South. And brought you Panjim. Madgaon anti Vasco — the hubs that act as gateways to these beach destinations.

For tourists who would rather experience delights of Goa from the vantage point of a sheltered habitat, there is a selection of beach resorts. And for those, who go on holidays to be mare active, not less, there arc water sports. the famous Goan nightlife and shopping In explore and experience.

So go ahead and discttvcr your own niche on the Gaan coast.
