Well, Goa is far-famed for beautiful beaches, exciting water sports and tranquil ambiance. It’s in fact the first place that hits your mind when you think of enjoying a beach holiday in India. Over 100 miles long shoreline in the state boasts more than 3 dozen beaches that offer activities for all ages and interests. Beaches in Goa are classified into two main categories: North Goa beaches and South Goa beaches, with the former ones being as touristy as they can get. They are breathtaking beautiful and at the same time offer abundance of dining, shopping and entertainment. Here is a quick rundown of some popular beaches of North Goa that merit a visit.

Anjuna Beach


 Anjuna beach is one of the finest beaches in North Goa. Swim in its shallow waters, take a leisure stroll on the shore or just lay on the sand to take in the picturesque views of surrounding landscapes. The place is also a haven for night birdies who love dance, drink and party hard. Well, it’s not over here. How can you forget your loved ones who are waiting for their gifts at home? So here comes the famous Flea market that takes place on every Wednesday. The market was traditionally established to trade secondhand goods but now it is definitely more than that. A huge variety of handicrafts, jewellery crafted by the foreigners, apparels and many more gift items would delight you no end.


Mandrem Beach



Mandrem is a good place if you’re here for peace and tranquility. The beach has clear blue waters kissing the white soft sand, and offers great scenic beauty too. Visitors can rest on the shacks or can take leisure stroll along the beach. Don’t forget to try the delicious sea food at nearby restaurants.

Though Arambol is quite far from popular beaches in Goa (36 kms from Panaji), it is definitely a delight be at with family or friends. Since it is less commercialized, the beach remains a big hit with hippies. There is a lively market where you can buy cool bohemian clothes and accessories. Arambol beach is also famous for its breathtaking sunset views.

A Memorable Trip to Barog: A Little Tranquil Hill Station Near Delhi

Our content-writing team at SOUTHALL TRAVEL had long been planning for a team outing, but we were not able to decide the destination. All were suggesting different choices and views. After a long debate, we all agreed on a place most of us were unaware of. BAROG!!! Barog?  Where is this place?? What is it famous for?? There were several questions none of us were unable to answer. I rummaged on internet and found that Barog is a small hilly town on Chandigarh-Shimla highway. In Solan district of Himachal Pradesh, the town is nestled at an altitude of around 6000 ft above the sea level. It is no so popular; but offers a peaceful ambiance and abundant natural beauty. Then I got to learn about the intriguing history about Barog. Actually, the town is named after Colonel Barog, a British engineer who planned to construct the world's largest straight tunnel on the Kalka-Shimla Railway Track. In a bid to speed up the work, he ordered to drill the mountain from bot...

Andaman Trip – Really an Audacious Sojourn!!!

-
Even though I’m a real Indian macrocosm fanatic, the one destination I have never been to is ‘Andaman Islands’, in spite of the fact that I’ve planned many times. But a month ago, I, with two of my friends, flocked to this estimable natural soil, and very soon after wandering around its gleaming shorelines, virgin forests and gorgeous tracts, I realized how much I missed exploring natural bounties being in so close to that. In recent years, Andaman has emerged as one of the hottest spots for travelers, especially those with a sense of nature and adventure. A large group of nearly 600 small islands, this archipelago is located in the Bay of Bengal. Politically it has been a part of India, though Myanmar and Thailand are close to it more than the Indian mainland. The Island was badly hit by Ocean earthquake and Tsunami of 2004, and was almost destructed at its shores. However, most of the tourist attractions, excepting the Little India and Mahatma Gandhi National Park...

Singapore: In Quest of Ambitious Makeover

-
For too long now Singapore has become one of the most exotic travel destinations in Asia. After separating from Malaysia about forty years ago, Singapore has constantly been attempting to become Asia’s number one city in term of efficiency and lifestyle. And thanks to its intensity of efforts, it’s now at its most ambitious makeover ever: a global art city, gaming Mecca, educational hub and most elegant and worthies place to visit on.    Singapore is a melting pot of various cultures from almost everywhere in Asian continent. Nevertheless, it doesn’t feel or smell like Asia. It has preserved some its finest historical creatures like Raffles Hotel, but a lot many of them have crumbled under its quest for modernism. Traditional buildings have turned into shinning high-rises and much of colonial history has become a history. Towering skyscrapers, world-class hotels and a number of newly established landmarks reflect Singpore’s wealth of 21 st  century. In l...
