What to do in Goa

Sightseeing

Hello, Traveller! Interest of each and everyone coming down to Goa can be of wide range, some like to experience new food, some wants to listen to a good music or enjoy chill out places. For example foreigner visitors often asks us about temples, they enjoy spice plantation tour with food served on banana leaves and selection of scented candle oils or birds watching or wildlife sanctuaries, local markets. Visitors from other parts of India are more often interested in Dudhsagar waterfalls, Casinos, water sports activities and also markets. Water sport activities can be found on Calangute beach or Vagator beach, they operate based on weather conditions, so pretty much the main season mostly (December-March) Adding some frequently visited places, for anything else please never hesitate to ask us for any advice. We are even happy to work out some itinerary for you, if you tell us your preferences and number of days you want to stay. Cheers!
Even though we haven't visited this farm personally, from all my friends or tourists we heard only positive comments. Its nice to take your kids and go there, or discover something new on Saturday afternoon. http://www.sahakarifarms.com

Waterfalls are surrounded by dense jungle and are beautiful experience for anyone who likes trekking and nature. The best time to visit is by the end of the monsoons while the water is still plenty. August - September -October. Its a full day trip from Calangute as the journey itself takes almost 3 hours. For toured guide we may recommend Atlantis Watersports.

Chapora fort is offering beautiful views over the sea and landscape for the sunset. Don't expect more or you may be dissapointed, but the views are beautiful, also the access to the fort has been done with stairs for comfortable climbing. Fort is accessible either from the beach below thru some winding road made by humans, or from the road, where the signs will lead you. By the road the walk takes about 20 minutes. You can also use scooter/car and leave it at the parking lot closer to the fort. From there on you have to walk 5 min. The best way to see Chapora fort would be spending the day at the beach, enjoying some relax and food from the beach shack and then by 5:30 slowly take a leave up to the fort.

Museum

I've taken my mother there as she enjoys the history, but even for those who are not particularly interested in the past, there are nice exhibitions that change regularly that may please your aesthetic soul. There is also small caffe where you can sit and enjoy small bite or beverage. Some weekends too, they have interesting activities happening there. Such as music events, talks, workshops.

Shopping

If you are to bring something home and you want something "typical" from India, best place to visit would be the Saturday Night market and Anjuna flea market. You'll find plenty of souvenirs there or small local brands with their clothing there, or just ethnic wear. You can get some spice mixes or scented teas or nice shawls, leather bags and more. Expect a lot of bargainig. (Personally if you want to bring home some nice mix like chicken tikka, butter chicken or masala mixes, you may find good selection in local supermarkets) for clothes though, its a nice place to let your eyes dance and soak the atmosphere.
Nice ambience, lot of stands with souvenirs, clothes, food, and evening performances. Saturday night market is open from December till March

This is for proper shopping - that means like branded products from the stores rather than handicrafts with restaurants around to enjoy
