Day 1 · North Goa

Friday landing, straight into Assagao's quiet lanes and a cliffside sunset

  1. Morning

    Spend the afternoon at leisure, perhaps taking a gentle stroll through Assagao's quiet lanes. This allows for relaxation and a peaceful introduction to the area, away from more crowded spots. Prepare for an evening sunset experience.

  3. Evening

    Head to Anjuna Cliff Sunset Viewpoint for a spectacular evening. Find a comfortable spot to watch the sun descend over the Arabian Sea, a perfect end to your arrival day. This hiking area offers panoramic views.

Day 2 · North Goa

A full beach day, then a Panjim evening under old Portuguese lamplight

  1. Morning

    Dedicate your morning to Morjim Beach, known for its quieter northern stretch. Enjoy the serene sands and the gentle rhythm of the tide. This is ideal for a relaxed start, away from the more crowded beaches of North Goa.

  2. Afternoon

    Continue your relaxed beach day at Morjim, enjoying a casual beach-shack lunch. There is no fixed schedule beyond the tide, allowing for spontaneous enjoyment of the sun and sea. This provides a perfect mid-day break.

    Tips for this part of the day
    • Many beach shacks close by late afternoon; plan your lunch accordingly.
  3. Evening

    Travel south 20 kilometres to Panjim, a journey of 45 minutes to an hour in evening traffic. Experience Fontainhas Latin Quarter with an evening walk, appreciating its unique charm under the lamplight. This tourist attraction offers a different Goan perspective.

    Tips for this part of the day
    • Consider booking a heritage walk with Make It Happen - Heritage Trails and Walking Tours in Goa for a deeper understanding of Fontainhas.

A slow Sunday morning, then the flight home

  2. Afternoon

    Complete your late-morning checkout from the villa. Then, transfer back to GOX Mopa for your flight home. The drive reverses the arrival leg, covering 42 km and taking approximately 1 hour 15 minutes with traffic.

    Tips for this part of the day
    • Confirm your late checkout time with the villa in advance.
  3. Evening

    Your journey concludes with the transfer back to GOX Mopa. Allow ample time for airport procedures, ensuring a comfortable departure from Goa. Reflect on your weekend getaway as you head home.
