BEACH RESORTS IN INDIA
India has some of the most breathtakingly beautiful beaches
in the world. Its long coastline ensures that there are
long stretches of sands along its many azure seas that
are eye's delight on their own right. The palm trees,
the little huts, the coconut groves, the colourful hammocks
that line these beaches add more charm to this natural
splendour.
Goa is the most favoured destination for a comprehensive
beach holiday experience. Goa has an enviable stretch
of beaches complete with tourist friendly facilities and
accommodation. Vagator, Anjuna, Baga, Calangute and Candolim
are the darling beach resorts that provide spectacular
scenic beauty with palm trees giving the final aesthetic
touch. Parasailing, yachting, windsurfing, and deep sea
diving are some of the more popular water sports, facilities
for which are available. The surreal landscape and the
unique culture of Goa inherited from 451 years of Portuguese
rule have made this smallest state of India the inescapable
holiday spots for tourists from home and abroad.
