Colva Beach Goa

Colva is the most loved beach of Goans. The reason is the virgin white sands, palm fringed sun drenched beach is secluded and less crowded than some of the other beaches of Goa. There are many shacks lined up along the Colva beach which offers delicious Goan cuisine to be washed down by innovative cock-tails. One can savour the mouth-watering food while looking at the vast sea . Colva beach is 20km long and there are many tourist cottages and hotels that have come up.
Beauty of Colva Beach

The white powdery sand on the shores of the Arabian Sea along with the swaying palms and the sensuous sun creates the picture perfect holiday spot. It is a fisherman’s beach because as one strolls around the Colva beach one can see the mackerels laid on the beach sands for drying. Fishermen’s motor trawlers can be seen anchored in a line offshore. The trinket stalls and the drink stands on the golden sands under the moonlight make the evening on the Colva Beach utterly romantic.
