Watch local fishermen launching traditional boats at dawn and returning with catches sold immediately at impromptu beach markets. Visit the Church of St. John the Baptist, featuring a beautiful baroque altar, intricate woodwork, and a peaceful cemetery reflecting Goan Catholic heritage spanning four centuries. Traditional beach shacks serve super-fresh seafood prepared with authentic Goan-Portuguese recipes, including xacuti, coconut-based curry, vindalho, vinegar-marinated preparations, and cafreal green masala coatings. The village atmosphere encourages genuine interactions with locals, maintaining fishing traditions, Catholic customs, and cultural practices.

Stop: 1 hour - admission not included


Experience one of South Goa's least developed and most pristine beaches, offering unspoiled natural beauty, minimal commercialization, and an authentic fishing-village atmosphere, perfect for peace-seekers. The magnificent coastline features clean white sand backed by casuarina trees and traditional fishing villages where centuries-old coastal lifestyles persist largely unchanged. Limited beach shacks ensure a quiet atmosphere while serving excellent fresh seafood and Goan specialties at honest prices reflecting local rather than tourist economics. The shallow waters and gentle waves create safe conditions for family swimming, while regular dolphin sightings delight beachgoers and photographers. Walk to nearby Sunset Beach through fishing villages, arguably South Goa's finest sunset viewing location without crowds, noise, or commercial development.
