Odxel Beach
8 Rohan Jadhav

This beach is the perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and spend some peaceful time in nature. It's a local fishing spot that's not easily accessible to the general public, making it a great place for some alone time. Watching the sunset here is especially breathtaking and a great way to appreciate the beauty of nature while enjoying a cool evening. It's a great place to reflect on the past and contemplate the future while living in the present moment.

Caranzalem Beach
8 KIAN Patel

This beach is perfect for a morning or evening stroll, and you can witness a stunning sunset. It's not as busy as other beaches, making it a great spot for some peace and quiet.

Kekdole Beach
4 Kai Andersson.

This beach may not be the ideal destination for those who wish to take a dip in the water. However, it does offer a serene environment where one can unwind by sitting on the rocks and enjoying the view. During our visit, we came across only a few individuals who were there for sightseeing. Nevertheless, I would suggest exploring other beaches like Baga instead of this one.

Bambolim Beach
