This time we planned the trip to Goa in monsoon. Goa is popular for its long and clean beaches and also churches. Goa turns really beautiful in monsoon. You can see the colors of dark clouds over the huge sea.

We stayed in Goa for 3 days and 2 nights. There are huge numbers of hotels and resorts ranging from budget to super deluxe rooms. On the first day we visited Calangute and Baga beaches. These both are the most crowded beaches among all. Still you get so much fun being here. Calangute beach has very good shopping market nearby. You can buy good swim wares and local handicraft items.

The Dona-Paula beach is also famous as suicide point, as lovers named Dona and Paula had committed suicide here. This place is very well developed now and has become a favorite tourist place. In the evening, we chose to go for dance party on cruise. The ticket is 150 INR per head. You can enjoy for 1 hour on the cruise boat. They also perform some local dance arts.
