We went to Goa in April, just before the Monsoon season started and were lucky enough to find ourselves at Bogmalo Beach, a wonderful expanse of sand, very safe water for swimming and even Dolphins in the Bay. A short distance from Vasco de Gama airport, it was amazingly free of beach sellers so you can sunbathe in peace, in fact it was free of people - at any one time there were only half a dozen people on the beach! There are only two hotels, one catering for lively families at one end of the beach and one that is quiet and secluded. This is where we stayed. Called the Coconut Creek, it is a series of air conditioned apartments set around a lovely pool, hammocks strung between the trees and a brook running around between the apartments. You have your own terrace with two chairs and the people could not have been friendlier, it is a family run affair and the extended family run the hotel, the bar, the taxi service and everything else. Everything is cheap (divide by seven) so a good meal will only cost you £2. It was a joy to stay there and I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
