Choosing the most suitable holiday season in Goa

Goa is the smallest state of the state of India, which is located near the waters of the same Indian Ocean. Also noteworthy is that in this area the smallest number of citizens of this country live, but here the tourists are a dime a dozen. Here they are attracted not only by the unique Indian culture, but also by the mild climate, the warm sea and the bright sun. It is about when the vacation season begins on Goa, how long it lasts and how it affects the price policy, we'll tell in this article.

Short description of the recreation area

By itself, the resort of Goa, which is famous throughout the world for many years now, is a narrow strip separating the waters of the Arabian Sea (Indian Ocean) and the mountains called Sahyadri. The very territory of the state is completely spoiled by semi-mountain rivers that carry their waters to the sea. They give the whole resort its unique charm and mystery. It is worth noting that the state is divided into two parts - the Northern and Southern. In the first number of hotels is not so large, the water in the sea is not transparent, and the color of sand is too far from ideal - white. Nevertheless, all fans of trans-party come here, and they spend noisy and cheerful nights here, dancing on the beaches. The southern part of the state is the place where the purest sea is washed by white and golden sands. There is a huge number of hotels and spa centers, as well as other entertainment complexes.

Characteristics of the resort climate

As a rule, the high season in Goa falls on such months as November, December, January. Why exactly at this time tourists from almost the whole world come to India - let's try to figure it out. In the southern part of the country, climatic conditions are divided, so to speak, into three types: winter, summer and rain season. Winter here lasts from October to March, and during this period, the air temperature in the state is about 25-30 degrees Celsius. It is this season in Goa is considered the most popular for all Europeans, who are accustomed to a cooler climate and not too bright sun. Since March, summer begins, which means that the air temperature reaches a relatively high level in the region - 38 degrees in the shade. At this time, mostly Israelis come to rest here, but you can also meet Russians. Throughout the summer, the rainy season lasts for Goa. During this period there are few holidaymakers, as tropical downpours "wall" may not cease for many days.

If you have planned to visit this state ...

All the tourists who decided to go to the tropics of sultry India, it is worth remembering a few important facts. Firstly, when the beach season in Goa starts (and this happens in November and ends in early February), prices for both rental housing, and for food, as well as other trifles, rise several times. In these months there is a large influx of European tourists, which means for Indians that people who have money will come to them. The decline in prices can be traced in the period from February to May, when the summer begins, the air temperature rises, and on the Goa, mainly Russian tourists and guests from the Middle East come to rest. Note that resting in hotels located in the northern part of the state is much cheaper than in villas and penthouses, which are built in the South.

Sights of the South of India

When the tourist season begins on Goa, local guides and historians are happy to provide everyone with their services. Therefore, breaking away from the relaxation that local hotels will provide to you, you can visit the most famous and important monuments of architecture, which also carry a sacred meaning. In the state there are many Christian churches that were built here during the period of the East India campaign and Portuguese colonization. Among these are the Church of St. Francis of Assisi with the Basilica of Jesus, as well as the Cathedral of St. Catherine. Do not forget to also visit the indescribable beauty of the city of Gokarna, near which is Om beach - a real gem of the southern coast of Goa.

We rest cheaply and very interestingly

Based on all of the above, you may think that the holiday season in Goa continues exclusively in the winter, since then the heat begins, and after it - the rains are inexhaustible. In fact, all these frames relate only to beach rest and leisure. But the most interesting option for a vacation can be a journey through the valleys of the state rivers, through its rainforests and endlessly green valleys. Among such natural attractions we call Dudhsagar - a waterfall that locals call the "milk ocean", since the waters that fall from a huge rock to the lake really have a milky shade. The river island of Chorao is the home of the most unique birds, of various sizes and colors. Well, the diversity of flora and fauna awaits you in the Bondla Reserve, which is located at the foot of the mountain slopes.
