Palolem
is about 37 kms from Margao. Just west of Chaudi one of the most enchanting
beaches in Goa relatively deserted, with backdrop of Western ghats,
situated in Southern Taluka of Canacona.
Palolem is Goa's one of the most beautiful and idyllic beach and it
has 1.5 km crescent shaped beach. The beach lies on the southern coastline
of Goa amidst outstanding natural beauty.The sweeping crescent of
white sand is fringed by a shady rim of coconut palms and the whole
beach is hemmed in at either end by rocky crags.
It is comparatively fast emerging as a popular spot for day-trippers
from Colva and Calangute. Many travellers drift down from the northern
beaches to spend days, weeks or even months chilling out here. There
is very little development and it's extremely laid-back. Most accommodation
is in simple, rickety beach buts or villagers homes, with a handful
of more solid guesthouses scattered around.
Palolem Village is nestled in the palms backed from the beach. With
the large influx of tourists to the Northern beaches and the resultant
increasing commercialisation of these places. Palolem fits the bill
and in recent years, more and more tourists have been making a beeline
for this palm fringed golden beach.
