I had never bean to beaches, so was pretty excited about my vacation to GOA.
HOW TO REACH GOA FROM NEW DELHI
By Train: 12 direct train(s) from New Delhi to Goa (once can check IRCTC website)
By Air: There is direct connectivity of flight between New Delhi and Goa and it takes you 2h 30m.
By Road: Driving distance between New Delhi and Goa is 1877 km.
I booked a morning flight from Delhi - Goa, thinking i would get an extra day and can visit more places.
I reached Goa around 11 a.m and booked pre-paid taxi for Baga (as i had already booked hotels in Baga) and it cost around Rs.1200. You can check the price on the below link -

P.S Don't judge me when i say that i stayed in Baga. In my defense, it's my 1st time and i want to stay in a crowded place.
Like i said earlier, I had pre-booked my stay at Kalki Resort (near to Baga beach)from goibibo(got really good deal). You can check pictures on the below link-

I reached around lunch time, so, kept luggage on my room, had lunch and roamed around to explore the cottage and places nearby.
Next Day, after breakfast, stayed lazily in the pool for sometime. Later rented an Scooter for Rs. 250 per day and went to Baga, Calangute, Candolim and Agonda beach and Fort Aguada . I spent entire day roaming around, had lunch is one of the shacks.
Day 3: After breakfast went to Panjim and visited some beautiful churches. Also visited Basilica of Bom Jesus and Se Cathedral , Ancestral Goa museum and did some shopping on the way.
In the evening, went to Anjuna, Vagator and Arambol Beach, had dinner on the shack and returned to cottage pretty late.
This is me on pink Vespa, driving on the streets of Goa.
My trip is over, there is lot of places that need to be visited left to be continued in the next trip (next time, will stay further North, as it has good beaches and nice crowd). Water sports haven't started, must try for next trip.
