Destination overview

From dense rainforests to palm fringed golden sands, the jungle meets the ocean in Goa.

Situated on India’s west coast and bordering the Arabian Sea, Goa is a slice of paradise. Despite being the country’s smallest state, it’s known for its big personality, vivacious night life and electric energy.

Home to spectacular architecture, colourful cuisine, a vibrant culture shaped by song and dance and natural attractions, it’s no surprise the coastal oasis has been dubbed India’s ‘sunshine state’.

From Saturday nights at Ingo’s open air bazaar in Arpora for the market-goers, to beach parties and getting up close and personal with sloths, panthers and barking deer at Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollem National Park, it’s Goa’s diversity that attracts travellers again and again.

Whether you’re on the hunt for a wild night or wildlife, you will find it all in this coastal oasis.
