10 Ways to Make Your Goa Trip an Unforgettable Excursion

Goa is an upbeat fun place and is all about lazing around at the beaches, sipping the famous Feni, exploring, playing, hanging out with your pals, having a whale of a time, and experiencing bliss.

However, if you really want to know what Goa can be for you, then, all you need to do is dig a little deeper and go beyond the perspective of a regular traveller. Read on to find out what we mean by this.

1. Visit the Hippie Market of Ingo

Apart from its smooth beaches and beautiful climate, Goa is also known for its shopping excursions. When it comes to shopping, there is no better place than the Ingo market of Goa.

2. Visit St. Anthony’s Beach Shack

There are several beach shacks that you can find on the Goan beaches. However, nothing can beat the fun of Anthony’s beach shack, as this is a double-decker shack and secondly, it is located on a relatively quieter beach. This is the kind of combination any travel lover will fall in love with. All we can say is that it is one of the best places to visit in Goa.

3. Take A Short Term Yoga Training Program

One of the most fun things to do for any fitness enthusiast would be to take a certified Yoga course here. One can choose from 200, 300 & 500 hour-long courses available as per their comfort and budget.

4. Witness the Olive Ridley Turtles at Galgibaga Beach

As seen by many, Goa is not just a party place. Rather, it is a getaway where one can relish in the beauty of nature, go someplace quiet and contemplate life and its musings, breathe out all the anxieties of life and breathe in the unending calm. And one such place is the Galgibaga beach, a nesting ground for a protected species of Olive Ridley Turtles. 

5. Visit the Old Remains Of Cabo De Rama Fort

This is quite an old fort situated in the South Goa region. It is more or less a perfect place for hiking and checking out the amazing views from the top. Undoubtedly, a visit to this fort would be truly one of the best things to do in Goa.

6. Take A Bike Trip To Chorla Ghats

If you are lucky, you might just be able to spot an Indian leopard while you are riding towards these ghats. Yes, these regions are famous for the presence of wild animals like leopards.

You wouldn’t want to miss out on such a scenario while experiencing the natural and flawless beauty of this geographical region that will simply win your heart.

7. Visit Butterfly Conservatory

Well, one can definitely not imagine the existence of such a thing in Goa which further proves that this beautiful state is much, much more than just a party destination.

At this butterfly conservatory, you don’t just get to watch these beautiful creatures of nature but also get to feed them. We can guarantee that visiting here would be one of your most memorable moments in Goa.

8. Go to the Spice Plantations

If you want to go someplace else other than the beaches, then we would highly advise you to visit the spice plantations; a famous tourist place in Goa. Walking through these plantations will give you an opportunity to come closer to nature and spend some really good time alone.

9. Cruise Ride at Mandovi River

If you haven’t cruised before in life, then you cannot afford to miss this one out. Several cruises are operated and run by the Goa Tourism Development Corporation on the Mandovi River.
