Built-in 1605, the Basilica of Bom Jesus is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important Christian pilgrimage sites in Goa. The church holds the mortal remains of St. Francis Xavier and boasts an impressive baroque architecture.
Escape the crowds of Goa's popular beaches and spend the day at the Agonda Beach. The beach is known for its unspoiled natural beauty with crystal-clear waters, pristine golden sand, and vibrant greenery around. It's ideal for relaxing walks, sunbathing, and swimming with family.
Experience the natural wonder of Dudhsagar Falls - a majestic waterfall cascading from a height of 310 meters. Surrounded by lush greenery, the falls make for a perfect family picnic spot. Enjoy swimming in the plunge pool, bird watching or trekking through the nearby forest.
The Reis Magos Fort offers a glimpse into Goa's rich history and heritage. Once used as a defense post by the Portuguese to protect their territory, the fort has been converted into a cultural center with an art gallery and a museum showcasing the state's history and culture.
If you have more time, consider visiting the Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, Flea Markets or try some local delicacies at Mapusa Market, which are especially enjoyable with family. You can remove the Dudhsagar Falls visit if you are tight on schedule, or switch it up with other scenic locations like Chapora Fort or Butterfly Beach.
