Goa
Famed for white sandy beaches and balmy waters, Goa offers not only the ideal beach holiday, but a healthy dose of colourful culture, hidden natural treasures and mouth watering cuisine. Its 130 km (82 miles) of coastline shelter everything from secluded silken sands tucked among soaring cliffs to bustling beach resorts with the latest facilities and exciting water sport options.
With its Portuguese heritage, Hindu and Muslim influences, Goa is a fascinating blend of east and west, tempered with a laid-back style (locally known as sossegado) entirely its own.

- Ample wildlife, from sambar and barking deer to the elusive leopard
- Lush rain forest covers the slopes of the Western Ghats
- Ultimate relaxation, from ayurvedic massage to reiki, Zen and yoga
