Butterfly Beach, as the name suggests, is a haven for spotting butterflies, crabs and dolphins. you can even take a boat or a canoe to explore this hidden oasis in your own style. Hidden away from the crowds of palolem and Agonda, Cola Beach is an elusive wonder where the water is the perfect amount of still to swim in and watch the hues of the sun set over. walk to Blue Lagoon, where a palm tree-encrusted freshwater stream meets the beach. yes, this is what paradise looks like. Just south of Madgaon is Benaulim Beach and this is where all the sea-foodies need to unite. The vibrant culture is juxtaposed with peace and tranquillity as you sit around spotting dolphins and crocodiles. Make sure you do any parasailing or jet skiing before you eat till you can no longer move. when you’re done soaking in the sun, head to Assolna to explore the gorgeous portuguese architecture of some colonial-era palaces, and don’t forget to shop for some trinkets to wear later.
