Star Rating of Hotel :

This day we shall have a good circuit tour of the beautiful south Goa. South Goa is more greener, quieter and peaceful when compared to North Goa which is all the region north of Mandovi River and Panjim. South Goa is the idyllic place that needs to be explored in a motor bike or bicycle as you pass through the coconut tree lined beach roads and the paddy fields. We shall visit the Margao city where you can do the must do Goa shopping, which normally includes, Cashewnuts, The Goan food like Sausages, Bebinka and Alcohol if you are a fan because the drinks are a lot cheaper in Goa than the rest of the country. Some other must visit spots suggested in the region includes Martins Corner, a very famous restaurant in South Goa. We can make pit stops at the wide Colva beach, Betalbatim beach and the Benaulim beach. Spend the day in the much relaxed manner that it is required while you are in Goa and we shall retire back to the resort whenever you are ready since it is hardly an hours drive only from most places that we visit this day.
