Majorda Beach, Goa
Majorda Beach, Goa
The starting
point of the main stretch of Southern Beaches of Goa, location of the most
exclusive beach resort hotels in Goa and India tourism.
Located in
Salcete, Majorda is one of the smaller developed beaches of Goa, albeit the
whole area possesses a lot of character, with small fishing villages scattered
around palm groves.
This South Goa beach area is the site of three spacious
deluxe Goa hotel resorts, quite popular with those on a Goa holiday package
tour. To its north are two other small beaches; Arossim, which is its deserted
northern end, and Utorda, ten minutes walk further north.
The resorts, along
with the lack of any typically cheap Goa accommodation make the area relatively
exclusive. For more action, you could hop onto one of the most loved beaches of
Goa, Colva, 5 km south.
The villages
in the area are relatively prosperous, partly because many families have men
working in the Gulf, and many traditional mansions of wealthy families stand
out.
The
Kenilworth Beach Resort offers a water sports centre managed by professionals
which are open to non-residents too.
Apart from
the excellent restaurants at the resorts, there're a few clusters of beach
shacks close to the resorts offering a good choice from the cuisine of Goa,
India and Europe. Betalbatim has a few good restaurants and beach bars.
Interestingly designed as a pirate ship, Treasures is a popular casino cum
disco at Majorda Beach Resort Goa. It's also the only disco in Goa or India
from where you can send an Email.
