Vagator Beach - Perfect Sandy Beach

Most beach destinations boast of perfect sandy beaches, good waters, great food comfortable living spaces and not to heavy on the pockets. Some beaches don’t live up to this and some do, Vagator beach in Goa belongs to the one that do. Vagator beach is located to the north of Goa, 22kms away from the capital Panjim, near to the more famous and crowded Anjuna beach.Vagator has it all, emerald green waters that changes colors, pure white sands, with black rocks scattered all across the beach. Not to mention the usually picturesque palms and the real life fishing village bordering the shores. History has left its marks and at Vagator it is obvious in the 500 year old Portuguese built fort. A trek to the fort is a very much done thing, in return you get to have some of the best views that one could ask for. The old black walls look down on small fishing villages, breaking through the thousands of coconut trees that dot the entire area.

Not very far from the sea front are two fresh water springs. The hinterland is worth the exploration but not without a personal vehicle, preferably a four wheel drive to handle the rough roads.

Vagator also offers some of the best local cuisine at a reasonable rate. It also holds some great parties come winter, a big craze with lovers of trance and psychedelic music dished out by some of the best DJ’s imported from Europe and available locally.

Vagator has yet to be discovered in a big way, thus you can easily find room for you to enjoy the gifts of nature without being jostled by the crowds. Come season time and all the limited resources like shacks and resorts which are very few in no will be occupied to the hilt.
