Baga
Beach is part of a 30-km stretch of beach coastline along the west coast of
Goa by the Arabian Sea, 10-km west of Mapusa, is basically an extension of
Calangute beach. The beach begins at Fort Aguada continues as Sinquerim
beach, then as Candolim Beach and merges into Calangute beach and then to
Baga beach and then Anjuna Beach and then to Vagator Beach finally ending at
Chapora Beach and Fort.
Exotic Locales Around BagaLying
in the rocky, wooded headland, the only difference between this far northern
end of the Baga beach and its more congested center of Calangute Beach is
that the scenery of this beach site is more varied, unspoiled and scenic.
Water
Sports At BagaThe quiet atmosphere and isolated location of Baga,
beside the scenic beauty that surrounds it, with the creek, the Retreat
House perched on the hill and the lack of local tourist buses all have
contributed to the beach being a favourite of the beach lovers. Baga beach
is more popular with western tourists who love to use it as a base for water
sports and fishing in the area.
Eating Out Places At
Baga BeachBaga has arguably the best range of restaurants in Goa,
from standard beach shacks to swish pizzerias and terrace cafes serving real
espresso coffee. Tourists can opt for a candlelit dinner at the beachside,
or a traditional Goan meal at the shacks and restaurants offering
continental as well as tempting seafood.
Entertainment
& Leisure At Baga BeachThanks to the droves of predominantly
British package tourists who stay here, Baga's nightlife is the liveliest in
the area. Most of the travellers end up at Tito's, which has the only dance
floor and hefty sound system outside a big hotel for miles. Women are
allowed in for free, but men and couples have to pay.
