Well if one really wants to enjoy the night life in Goa, then plan your itinerary in way that you reach Baga Beach in late evening around 2200-2300 hrs, because night life starts after that only. Leave the cab outside Titos lane and don’t miss to walk through the Titos lane, as you will see Pubs and other Discos also. Titos is at the last, near to Baga Beach . During night time enjoy a walk at the Beach or take a table at any of the restaurants available there. (no shacks available in night, its only during the day time). Most of the restaurant plays loud music along with dancing space. So please feel free to choose one. Note: bargain if the owner asks for cover charges- cover charges are high on Saturday and Sunday night, but free on other nights. Off course ready to shell out a little extra for Booze and dinner at Baga.
On the way to Baga one will find liquor store and so many shops selling liquor – one may buy at Cheap rates from them and carry it to the beach – you are allowed to have it on the beach.
Day time - Water sports and shacks are available in day time at Baga. A must visit place with family.
Calangute-Same as Baga but a less happening place in night. Water sports also available here in day time.
Its better to keep one or two days to explore Goa with scotty. So many options to hire them, even the hotel people would arrange that. Around Rs 300-400 for the day with helmet, depending on the season.
