Even if you can't afford to stay in the beach resort, you can spend a great day on this beach where you have the choice of swimming in the freshwater river or in the sea. A barrier of sand prevents the two from mixing. Popular with Indian and foreign tourists and highly recommended.

If you want to chill out then come here. Bit of a mission to get to down some bumpy tracks. Beach is ok, it also has a lake but bit slimey for my liking. There are some huts where you can stay and a small restaurant

You can stay in luxury tents at Cola Beach which prove a welcome break from your little hut on the beach. Much cooler at the lagoon (there was a heatwave when we stayed in Palolem).You have the choice of sea (which can be rough however) or freshwater lagoon. Restaurant serves nice food, service is friendly and warm. The only gripe... More

It took us some time to find this beach and go through some really rough road. but it was well worth it...very secluded beach and not very well known. You can see the fresh water joining the ocean. its a small beach so not many options to eat..

This is a very quiet sandy beach. Well worth a visit. The sea though cannot be slimmed in as its too rough.

Slightly off the main road down a bumpy sand road. Then a short steep walk down to the beach and lagoon. Huts and tents under the palm trees. Sea can be a bit rough and strong currents
