About Varca and Cavelossim Beaches
A long quiet run of white sand from Varca to Cavelossim, backed by palms and a few big resorts, with the Sal river joining the sea at Mobor. Dolphin trips and river cruises leave from the Cavelossim side in the clear season, and the sunsets are good. The beach is wide and peaceful, with few shacks and little noise. Swim within the lifeguard flags.
