Calangute Beach in Goa

Goa Beaches - Goa Calangute beach is also called the 'Queen of Beaches' because the beauty one would find Calangute beach cannot be found elsewhere. Calangute Beach is only nine miles north from the Goan capital, Panaji. Visitors can either take up accommodations near the beach or make day trips from Panaji. Several villages are in the area of the beach, but none has a direct enough claim on the beach to be associated with it by name. The beach is about four miles long and covered with palm trees. November to February is considered the peak tourist season, and tourists avoid Goa in general during the rainy months, but the truth is that there is no bad time to visit Calangute. Calangute was hippies hang out during the 60's and 70's. Today the hippies have mostly turned into yuppies. But the beach is unchanged - pristine, serene golden sand and sun. The beach is filled with average sun worshippers and their children. Fresh seafood is everywhere on sale.

Buses from Mapusa and Panjim pull in at the small bus stand cum Market Square in the centre of Calangute. Some continue to Baga, stopping at the crossroads behind the beach en route. Get off here if one can, as it is closer to most of the hotels
