Step away from crowded shacks into island ferry rides, Latin villas, and hidden mangrove kayaking. Think Goa is just Baga beach and clubs? Discover the untouched soul of Goa — from the car ferry to Divar Island to kayaking with otters in Chorao mangroves.
Take the free vehicle ferry from Old Goa across the Mandovi River onto Divar Island. Drive past emerald paddy fields, crumbling Portuguese mansions, and the baroque Church of Our Lady of Compassion perched on the highest hill.
Glide silently through narrow brackish water canals in Dr. Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary. Spot migratory kingfishers, mudskippers, and smooth-coated otters in peaceful tranquility.
Visit the 400-year-old Braganza House in South Goa featuring crystal chandeliers, Italian marble, and priceless antique teak furniture.
