Where to Stay in North Goa

North Goa’s beach areas each have a distinct personality. Choosing the right one is the most important decision of your trip. Here is an honest guide.

Candolim, Calangute and Baga

Busy, commercial and full of restaurants, clubs and water sports. Good for first-timers who want nightlife; crowded in peak season.

Anjuna and Vagator

Clifftop views, cafés, flea markets and music venues. Popular with younger travellers.

Ashwem and Mandrem

Beautiful, relaxed beaches with boutique stays, yoga and beach clubs.

Arambol and Querim

Bohemian Arambol has drum circles and a lake; Querim is Goa’s most untouched northern beach.
