About Galgibaga Beach in Goa

Galgibaga Beach in Goa, is known as one of the cleanest beaches with silver sands found in India.

It is featured with clear waters, silver shores and swaying palm trees. Often known as one of the most picturesque hidden gems of Goa, Galgibaga Beach is a charming, unspoilt beach in South Goa. Moreover, it is also one of the only three beaches in Goa that are popular as nesting sites of Olive Ridley turtles which are preserved and protected by the state government. In order to monitor and conserve the Olive Ridley hatchlings, several steps have also been taken by the State Government of Goa. Unlike some of the most famous beaches in Goa, Galgibaga beach remains less crowded even during peak season, and offers a serene getaway for many travelers.

Galgibaga Beach in Goa is replete with dense vegetation, varied topography, and a kilometer-long coastline. Galgibaga river is joined to the Arabian Sea at the southern end of the land which makes for an excellent sightseeing option. Not only this but the twisted land is also surrounded by a green hillock at its back and the blue Arabian Sea in front. This is an endearing sight for many visitors who come here for excellent views and landscapes. Especially for those travelers who want to explore the hidden, pristine beaches of Old Goa, this is the best place to visit. Spend a day by the seaside to experience the delight of simply walking along its shimmering coastline amidst silk sands as the cool breeze rub against your skin.

As the beach of Galgibaga remains less crowded and more clean, it is a perfect spot to enjoy a vacation here with your spouse or a few close friends. While it is possible to visit the Galgibaga Beach anytime of the year, especially during the months between December and February it is more delightful to come here. It is because during these months you get to see the nests or eggs of the Olive Ridley turtles or just the turtles crossing their way along the shores. Make your plans for Goa accordingly if you sincerely wish to catch a glimpse of the same.

Ssklmw's 5 days trip to Goa

I'm Senthil Kumar, a 53-year-old who had always dreamed of visiting Goa. Despite numerous attempts, I never had the chance until last week when I got a one-week holiday. Although my family couldn't join me, I decided to embark on a solo trip. Initially, they were apprehensive about me traveling alone, but my daughter reached out to Goa Originals, and you made my dream a reality. From airport pickup to drop, your team took excellent care of me. Your timely calls and messages were incredibly reassuring. The constant communication between us gave me the confidence to enjoy my trip without any worries. Kudos to you and your team for the outstanding work! Thank you for making my trip so memorable. Best regards, Senthil Kumar"

Suresh's 4 days trip to Goa

On the first day of arrival due to our flight delay we checked in at hotel late at night . But even after informing , dinner was not provided for us , even though we had two small kids with us . Second , the cruise that was booked for us was not good . It was very local . If we had known about it before we would have asked to change the cruise and paid additional charges too . We are so disappointed after reaching the cruise . Thirdly , we were not informed that there will be no scuba diving and snorkeling . But it was mentioned in the package

Harshal's 3 days trip to Goa

The overall trip was good. However inspite of intimating that we would be reaching early at the hotel and to give early check in for atleast one room we were made to wait for atleast 3 hrs. I feel that should be taken into consideration. The taxi driver didn't inform us that one of the locations were to close by 5 pm and hence missed the sightseeing as it was already closed, which was another disappointment. Anyways we built good memories out of our vacation.
