Goa Carnival is the most glitzy festival and has wide appeal. The festive mood spreads the aura just before Easter Sunday and people start planning for the carnival. The Goa Carnival is one big party that continues for three days and nights moving in and out of the streets of Goa.
The carnival buzzes with unlimited activities, including songs, street plays with historic themes and wonderful dances by the attendees. As the carnival reaches its peak, Goans miss no chance to highlight their Konkani culture in the form of dances and music. Enthusiasts enjoy parading in the open air, wearing mask and shaking their body, playing guitars and drums.
Revellers, every year choose a person to play King Momo, who presides over the chaos. King Momo enters the capital city of Panjim with his full entourage and that marks the beginning of the revelry. A traveller can dress up in a costume and join in the street dancing.
Once you have enough of partying at the carnival, a traveller can simply head to the beautiful beaches of Goa to unwind. Goan beaches have been divided into beaches in north Goa and beaches in south Goa. If you love fun and enjoy being part of the crowd, you may head to beaches like Calangute, Baga, and Anjuna. Quite a few beaches in north Goa offer water sports and one can try para-sailing, water scooter ride, banana ride, scuba diving and dolphin watch.
South Goa is known for its calm and tranquil beaches. Some of the popular south Goa beaches include Colva, Varca, Bogmalo and Palolem.
