Colva Beach
This
is the most important beach in the south circuit equipped with all modern amenities
like air-conditioned resort complexes, tourist cottages, discos, seashell artefact
stalls, refreshment stalls, eateries, guest houses, expanding the village enormously.
The Church of Our Lady Of Mercy in Colva is famous for its miracle statue of
Menino Jesus. The road leading from the Church to the beach is where all the
facilities are located.
Colva is a small village in south Goa on the shores of the Arabian Sea. It lies
39 km away from Panaji, capital of the Indian state of Goa. Two km further ahead
from Colva is Benaulim.
With 20 km of virgin white sands, palm fringed, and sun drenched beaches, Colva
is the most loved beach of Goans. Colva, unlike Anjuna or Calangute, gained
popularity only lately. It was little disturbed and life moved on quietly.
While taking a stroll on the Colva Beach, silver carpets of bangdde (mackerels)
can
be viewed shimmering on the golden sands for drying. Fishermen’s motor
trawlers can be seen anchored in a line offshore.
Tourists - Indian and foreigners, as well as locals - can be seen in colorful
dresses, coming either for a walk or ‘for a change of air’. Many tourists
can be seen having a sunbath on the golden sands.
The trinket stalls and the drink stands on the golden sands under the moonlight
make the evening on the Colva Beach utterly romantic.
