Fort Aguada Beach Resort, Bardez

Advantages: Cheap, very sunny, great beaches, food
Disadvantages: Lack of sight-seeing places

...at the airport by the villa owner's driver then at villa by Sue, one of the 2 women who run Lazydays in Goa itself. She had lots of hints and tips and was very helpful. We ate mainly at the shacks, which do great cheap food and usually provide sunbeds for free. Try the king prawns - delicious. In the evenings, we usually went to try other things, and often treated ourselves to an good meal in an air-con restaurant - they cost about the same as a meal in England. In Candolim, there is the Fort Aguada Beach Resort and in Baga, there is Le Restaurant (which is not air-con but does great food). The beaches are very long, but the sea is choppy. Also try the Baga saturday night market and the bigger Arpora one on Weds - great shopping - and HAGGLE! However there was a lack of things to do - so if you want more than just lying on the beach you might... Read review

...on a banana leaf, fresh melon and a feni toast, all for £3. There are numerous beaches dotted along the coast worth a visit, our favourite was Ashwem, very very quiet in comparison to Baga and only two sellers. Coco Beach is worth a visit, if only for the hour long dolphin spotting trip, where you will see the Prison at Fort Aguada - spot the Englishman arrested for carrying drugs, waving his flag through the bars! One unusual evening was Casino Goa in Panjim. It's on a ship which cruises the Mandovi River and a smaller boat shuttles people to and fro hourly. We met some fantastic people in our hotel and all went in taxi convoy to Panjim. There is a dress code aboard, which we were not aware of and a few of us were not dressed appropriately. This resulted in a dash around Panjim for new trousers and shoes!!! The entry fee is about £15 which... Read review
