Chapora Beach

It is situated at a distance of approximately 10 km from Mapusa. The workaday indifference to the annual invasion of Westerners is most evident on the main street, lined with as many regular stores as travellers cafes and restaurants. The beach is picturesque and offers amazing views of the sunrise as well as the sunset. At Chapora Beach, you can take a lazy walk, soak the sunrays or just play around in the water.

Another reason that has contributed to the popularity of the beach is that it provides the perfect access to other beaches and tourist places in Goa. The period from June to October brings heavy rain, almost up to 400 cm. The most basic attraction is Chapora Fort and the houses built in dense groves of coconut palms. There are even some of the local houses that may be hired. The beautiful beaches of Chapora are well connected with the rest of the places. The Dabolim airport is the nearest. The Karmali railway station takes care of the tourists who travel by train.

The number of hotels in the areas near to the beach is really very few but to supplement this there are rented houses that are scattered among the coconunt plantations. There are not many high class luxury hotels nearby but you could always opt for the rented houses and cottages that provide the best view of the beaches. Then, one can go for the Goan delight of Bebinca, which is found, on the sea shore.
