    Start your trip in Goa with a visit to the most popular beach in the state. Calangute beach is known for its vibrant nightlife, water sports activities and shacks serving fresh seafood. Take a stroll along the beach, enjoy the sunset and indulge in some shopping at the local markets. The beach can get crowded, so if you prefer a quieter setting, head to Baga Beach, which is just a 4-minute drive away.

You can take a dip in the cool waters or enjoy a picnic with your loved ones. The falls are closed during monsoon season, so make sure to check the weather forecast before planning your visit.

  3. Day 3: Fort Aguada
    30 minutes (12.5 km) from Dudhsagar Falls

    Explore Goa's rich history with a visit to Fort Aguada, a 17th century Portuguese fort.

You can also visit the nearby lighthouse and the Sinquerim Beach.

  4. Day 4: Anjuna Flea Market
    30 minutes (13.6 km) from Fort Aguada
