Day 1

Vasco Da gama,the largest city in goa thats where we landed,The international Airport.
The Airport is so poorly maintained that at first i thought the trip is a waste but wait a minute until goa cast its spell on you when you start cruising into the heart of it!
We arrived at a guest house of my "Uncle's" in panaji(panjim). It's an okay room but for 1000(not worth it).Day 1 was a heart break but wait until day 2!
Tip: if you are going with 4members take a cottage in South goa's palolem its costs 2k for a night!

Panjim is the capital of GOA. It has various markets, restaurants you can look out for, you'd love the city if you are a city slicker.Baga and calangute are some 14km away from panjim,A well know landmark in panjim is the theen building (a construction of three buildings which look exactly the same from all the sides). There's a super market to the opposite of theen building,it is delfino's market,they also got some food stalls in there,even biryani! You can rent a bike in panaji,bike rental service can be found in g-maps,they'll take a duplicate of your aadhar card and everything will be done through whatsapp, they dont rent a bike for one day in goa i donno why, they have this weird rule of renting it for 2 or more days, however the rentals for an activa is so cheap that is 400/2days,you can even get it for low if you are a good negotiator. There's a modern european restaurant you can check out for in st. Sebastian chapel's road,mala. There is also an art gallery in that road. Alcohol? You'll get that anywhere in GOA.

Day 2

Aaah palolem Here we go! We started to palolem beach in south goa,the beauty,the divine.Words just can't describe this beach.The best beach i have seen in goa. If you ever ask me about beaches in goa i'll always point you to palolem. The coconut trees flaunting behind the cottages,the waves hitting the shore and how well this beach is being maintained that even the international airport doesn't even have a chance to side by this beach cleanliness.we got drinks,sea food.,the hospitality people show around there! And wait they also have live music and fireworks in the night,Is this the perfect beach on earth?Yes it is! We stayed in one of the cottages on the beach,they'll also provide an extra cot if needed,the staff is so kind as i said,they were up all night till 2:30 to serve us with drinks, however kitchen will be closed at 11:30.We also took some time to have a glance of another beach which is beside to palolem some 4km away.
The Agonda beach! I can only say that this is the second best of Goa.We had snacks in there and returned back to our magical beach palolem. You just don't want to get away from palolem I'm saying. There's a flea market in both palolem and agonda. Live music at night! It just can't get perfect isn't it! The very perfect beach PALOLEM
And then we had to head back to the next,Damn! i just can't leave that place but i had too.

Day 3

And from palolem we're back again in panaji at our guest house in the meanwhile of our journey we took a visit to some of the local temples and basilica of bom jesus, the church has its own charm,the walls were so historical. It kinda feels like you are in Hogwarts!

Day 4

So we're in GOA and We gotta see this baga and calangute beach which are so called popular destinations of goa as people say , Baga and calangute are sure the party capitals of Goa. baga is where sunburn happens. If you are a partier then north goa is for you,the beaches are not that well maintained obviously cause its a crowded place,you'll find many pubs,the famous tito pub which is said to be known by the whole world,bars, casinos and restaurants in here, you'll also find casinos in some cruisers. Baga and calangute are same, its an 8km stretch, i personally didn't liked the beach thaaat much!cause of the crowd mainly. After this we headed to aguada fort. Its a Portuguese fort,There is a charm in itself here. The view from the top of the fort is awesome, you'll feel magical. The worst part was coco beach God its not even a beach,you'll regret if you spend time at coco for sure, So that's goa,sadly i didn't really had time to see dhudsagar falls which are a beauty in itself and also some other places which are not to be missed if you really live trekking and exploring nature. So yeah that's it! The very best of Goa which i truly enjoyed is the charms of palolem and the view from aguada!
