BAMBOLIM BEACH
AT
NORTH GOA
Located in North Goa, this peaceful little beach is a haven for those
who want to enjoy the sand and surf without the crowds that pepper most of the
other beaches in North Goa. The beach is a secluded stretch of sand and rocks,
lined on the landward side with swathes of swaying coconut palms, which provide
a cool and shady place to relax.
The Bambolim beach is located near the little seaside town of Bambolim
which is about 7km from Panaji, the capital city of Goa. Although there is no
bus service to the beach, it is quite accessible by road and can be reached
using the services of a pilot or taxi service.
Bambolim beach, like most of the beaches in Goa is at its best during
the tourist season, from October to March. Those who choose to visit between
March and June, should beware the hot sun, and carry water and sunscreen. From
June to September, the monsoon season, the beach has its own peculiar charm,
but the sea is not safe to swim in
The Bambolim beach is a great place to have a beach picnic and enjoy the
quiet and solitude of one of the less frequented beaches in Goa, whilst at the
same time, being more accessible than most of the other secluded beaches.
The Bambolim Beach Resort, which is located nearby provides rooms for
rent and also has a great restaurant which serves a variety of different
cuisines ranging from authentic and spicy Goan fare to cool continental
delights.
Unlike most of the other beaches of Goa, the Bambolim beach is not
cluttered with vendors and shacks lining the shore cheek by jowl, instead it is
a stretch of golden sand interspersed with rocky outcroppings, and of course
boarded by the blue waters of the Arabian Sea.
The beach is also a popular hangout for university students who like to
chill there for a while after their lectures, since this is the closest beach
to the University of Goa. The beach is also popular with fishermen, both
pleasure fishing and serious fishing.
