A VISIT TO FISHERMAN'S WHARF: Embark on The Culinary Trail

Fisherman's Wharf needs no introduction, having been reviewed by numerous food bloggers from Goa, India, and around the world. However, We aim to provide a fresh perspective by sharing my personal experience, particularly if you're planning a weekend visit.

Nestled in the extreme south of Goa, on the banks of a Sal River with scores of fisherman's boats anchored along the coast, Fisherman's Wharf transports you to a completely different world. To truly immerse yourself in this experience, I recommend visiting during lunchtime, as the scenery loses some of its charm as night falls. Nevertheless, an evening visit also holds its allure, which I'll delve into in the following paragraphs.

I have visited Fisherman's Wharf on numerous occasions, both during the day and at night, and have had the pleasure of experiencing the unique charm of each time. Drawing from my encounters, I will share my insights, recommendations, and favourite specialities, as well as discuss the ambience of this delightful establishment in the following article.

Starting with a daytime visit, you can anticipate immersing yourself in the mesmerizing surroundings along the riverbank where Fisherman's Wharf is nestled. This setting provides the perfect backdrop for capturing memorable moments with your phone camera in the bright daylight.

However, one potential challenge, particularly during the summer months, is the intense heat, as there are currently no airconditioned seating arrangements available. Nonetheless, the ambience remains pleasant, with numerous fans strategically placed around the restaurant to offer relief from the sweltering heat.

The temperature tends to stay high throughout the day, irrespective of the season—be it summer, winter, or monsoon—perhaps exacerbated by the high humidity in the air.

Moreover, regardless of whether you visit during the day or at night, Fisherman’s Wharf tends to draw large crowds. Hence, it is advisable to make a table reservation in advance. For booking inquiries, please refer to the contact numbers provided at the end of this article.
