the best experience of Goa

For many people, Goa is known as the beaches, forainer, and the land of parties that runs all night.

But more for this popular seaside destination.

Beyond the beaches, there is a rich culture with a fascinating history - it makes Goa an attractive place.

Read on to learn about 10 unusual things (not in any particular order), what you should do on your next journey of this sun-moaning phase.

1. Visit Scuba-Diving to Ship to Mormugao Harbor

Do you know that there are many ships in the sea in Goa?

The thought of diving and the discovery of debris is only attractive.

This real and mysterious experience allows you to uncover the mysteries of the past, where four ships - which comprise three German ships and an Italian - in 1943 Goenge flew into the sea and drowned.

In addition to these four ships, ships of World War II are also there.

Scuba divers have two of these ships - Susie and Davy Jones Locker - which are located near Grande Island.

If you are not in the mood for deep-sea dive, you can always compromise for snorkeling. Many underwater organisms and flora are being explored.

Getting there: A 20-minute ferry ride from Grand Island, Benaulim.

Cost: Rs 3,000 to Rs 5,000

2. Crocodile spots and elephant baths

This may be the first time you are closer and personal with crocodiles.

Frightened? This adventure is for brave hearts.

A small cruise with the Cumbarjua canal introduces you to wildlife along the banks of the river.

Crocodiles sit with patience, cover ducks, but do not be surprised if you are in a floating spot.

You can also enjoy one day with elephants.

Ever tried your hand at the elephant's bath?

Traveling to the cooperative Spice Farm gives you the opportunity to ride through your outskirts and elephants.

Brush, bucket, and water (of course) will be provided to you to take these beautiful animals to the bath.

Once you do, the elephants will take you for a ride, fill their trunks with water and you will happily screw them.

Nature lovers can also travel to Savoie Spice Plantation.

Savoie Spice Plantation is a perfect place for any nature lover on the south side of Goa. You can roam all day through planting, learn about countless spices, spot birds, and even reptiles. Planters also offer panoramic food made from fresh local ingredients obtained from their local plantation.

Getting there: Sahara Spice Farm is located in Ponda. It is about an hour's drive from Keelung.

Sawai Spice Plantation is located on  Belgaum to Panaji Road, Ponda.

3. Bathe in the freshwater spring in Pomburpa

Pombrupa Zor (freshwater spring) is six km away from Panjim Goa.

Narrow and winding roads through the Areca nt gardens will take you to the sleeping village of Pomburpa.

There is a freshwater cascade in the center of the field. Its water contains medicinal properties.

Finding tourists on the waterfall is rare and local people will gladly move you to enjoy bathing.

Concerned about returning to the hotel? do not disturb me; Riding back through the fields will ensure that you reach the drought as a bone.

I heard about that place, but I did not know the exact location. That's why I went through the fields and villages and finally came to this horrible spring.

It is quite secluded and there is a stone structure somewhere in between. There was absolutely no one so you have a lot of privacy. The spring water was warm and was very resting. Something like this in Goa is rare.

Getting there: You can visit Panjim and then rent a two-wheeler vehicle and drive up to spring.

4. Make a dirt bath

A small bay near Arambol beach is cut off from the main road.

Here is a natural freshwater lake. Its water comes from nearby hot water springs.

A huge banyan tree with huge grooves that will save you from the heat of summer.

Care for a natural mud bath?

Well, the lake is aligned with a natural clay belt. You can cover yourself with mud and rejuvenate.


It's a lovely lagoon and you can live there in small shocks. You will find most foreigners here. My impression is that they (foreigners) always find cool, quiet, and really beautiful places!

There is also a small place to eat, just if you do not want to stop but do picnics only one day.

Getting there: Walk with main Arambol beach (with further north coast) and bus corner (about 15 minutes walk), you will find the lake.

5. Bird watching on a river cruise

How does the morning start with the voice of birds?

However, you do not need to go to the forest. Just go to the backwater of the river Jeune River on the banks of the river beneath South Goa
