About Benaulim Beach
A relaxed stretch of sand south of Colva, beside a fishing village, with coconut palms and low-key shacks. It is quieter than the north and the sea is often calm early in the season. Fishermen pull in their nets on the beach in the morning, so you can watch them if you are around. Combine it with the Goa Chitra museum, which is a short ride away.
What to see and do
- Fishermen hauling nets in the morning
