Bogmalo Beach
South Goa District, Vasco da Gama 403802
The Bogmalo beach is one of the beaches in South Goa. it is also one of the quieter and less crowded beaches. A beautiful scenery and the well behaved waves make it a pleasant sunny visit. Only make sure you have enough sunscreen on, because the sun is unforgiving!
Goa Airport
Airport Rd, Dabolim, Goa 403801, India
4:15 pm, Goa.I reached Goa, the hotel staff picked me up, I reached at my 'Ok Ok' room and blah miscellaneous. I must tell you that this was my first time and I have come alone. A Big Risk? Why? Didn't I get any friends to come with? That's personal.I texted all the 3 'Goa Girl' I matched on Tinder Plus and asked to fix some schedule on a beach, bar or a boat. It happened the same exactly. I got all the three girls on all the above respective spots.
Velsao Beach
Vasco da Gama
28. Velsao BeachVelsao beach is also closer to airport and is famous for white sand, star fish and coconut trees making a serene surrounding.
Monkey Beach
Headland Sada, Vasco da Gama, Goa 403804, India
Our Lunch was planned at Monkey Beach (I don't know what they call it, there were no monkeys around & I am glad about it). Made two new friends Steve & Phil (Phil , has traveled 40 countries so far & he is just 28). They are true drifters, this also helped me to understand the differences in our approach towards life. Key Points- Water Sports at Candolim Beach- Boozing in shacks- A day trip to Grand Island & Monkey Beach (Mormugao) ( Swimming & Snorkeling )I am sure there would be some more descent places to explore, which were left out because of the tight schedule. I must admit this was first time, I was near to any beach & had a gala time. The downside was, I was tanned like anything & it also made me realize that I need to shed some weight . :)

Bat Island
Pequeno
Stop at Bat Island for a snorkelling adventureBat Island, also called Pequeno Island, is a small island a kilometre away from Vasco da Gama's Baina Beach. The island houses a single lush green hill and a small rocky beach with white sand. The main attraction, though, is the vivid coral reef and beautiful marine life that make Bat Island prime estate for snorkelling. The calm water surrounding are also perfect for kayaking. You can even find trainers here, if you are keen on learning these activities. Contact your hotel for more information.

Naval Aviation Museum
INS Hansa, Bogmalo
One of its kind - The Naval Aviation Museum is a must for anyone interested in History.
It has, on display, 13 decommissioned aircrafts, huge replicas of INS Vikrant and INS Viraat and a lot of other informative signage, rare photographs etc.
Johns Seagulls
Bogmalo, GA, India
John's Seagull is one of my favorite places in Goa.
The food is great (do try the golden fried prawns). The beer is good. The music is good. You can play pool when you're bored. You can take a stroll on the beach. You can stay late if you know the owner (which I do) and he serves drinks on the house (to only those he knows, and only after the places has officially shut down).
