For a memorable boat trip to the Grand Island, travellers in Goa can go on an exciting Grand Island day trip after reaching the Coco Jetty. On the boat ride to the Grand Island, visitors have a chance to spot a few dolphins in the sea. Most trips to Grand Island start at 8:30 am and continue till 4:00 pm. For those wondering how to go to Grand Island can also board a boat from Sinquerim Jetty in Candolim.

Marvel at the sight of the amazing scenery and indulge in some activities like snorkelling and fishing in the Arabian Sea. The best time to visit Grand Island is from November through March, this is when the waters are calm and the weather is pleasant for sightseeing as well as water sports. Reaching Ilha Grande or Grand Island by boat is a breath-taking experience.

The nearest airport to Grand Island is Dabolim Airport or Goa Airport. The airport is located only a few minutes away from the jetty at Hansa Beach.

Souradeeproy's 5 days trip to Goa

The hotel was very far from main road. Room was extremely damp. No welcome drink provided. No lift. There were no street lights so we had to come back to hotel by 7:30 to 8:00,as it was difficult for us to find it. All sight seeing tours and food was excellent!!

Regards PARTH PAHWA (GOA ORIGINALS) Deepika Dixit 5 photos We are highly satisfied with Goa Originals for all the arrangements for our goa trip. It was a couple trip. Raj was thoroughly helpful from picking n dropping, selecting the hotel, planning the itinerary. According to our requirement he provided us the best options for the hotels and also suggested for dinner on cruise, that experience was great. Raj personally suggested for COCHICHOS RESORT, VAGATOR, The Family Resort as it was full of greenery, beautiful premises, peaceful place,good maintenance, tasty food.. we are totally satisfied with it. Cab driver Salman was polite and very prompt for the service. I was quite scared because it was the first experience with Travel Triangle, but all thanks to the agency for their professional and friendly behavior. We are really happy with the agency for their services. We highly recommend it to you. We returned from the trip with unforgettable memories and experiences. Looking forward to have a trip with you again soon.

Be's 3 days trip to Goa

Hotel: So the hotel was ok. I can recommended to take the rooms upstairs... Breakfast: the service was very pleasant Customers should be informed that they have to pay extra tax when they arrive as the airport, especially as the document they received with the offer clearly states that the tax is paid. The Spicy Farm was the highlight.... I think that in general it would be preferable for all those who offer tours to include in the description what the different places to visit consist of. For example, making stops on beaches just to have seen them doesn't really make sense. The Spicy Farm

Mahesh's 4 days trip to Goa

It was going good but there lack of communication between agent and cab vendor where they are not agreeing to visit places which were travelling agent share with us. However later when I complaint about it then they took almost entire for discussion and then agree around 3 PM and that time it was too late to cover places and return back by 6 PM. They spoiled few of the places and in other words, pls advise customer whatever places are practically possible and when you agreed with customer then you should deliver it, otherwise customer hardly get 2-3 days time to visit some places and at that time you guys spoil one day due to your internal dispute then think about customer how much he will lost with these things. Although there was some hiccups but still enjoyed the Goan Beautiful beaches and other places specially cruise time was fantastic.
