Arambol Beach |
A
large and sprung out village near the seashore, Arambol
can be approached by a road which winds across the plateau
and down through the cashew trees. The beach is an uninterrupted
and stunning stretch of curving sand, still unspoilt in
comparison to other beaches. The beach is quiet except on
Sundays, when a large crowd of local picnickers gather here
for holidaying.
The villagers are friendly and the place is less touristy
allowing you to have a close experience of local life and
culture. There is relaxed environment and peace and tranquility
attracts many day-trippers from other beaches nearby. There
are miles long uninterrupted beaches with well-made track
running around. The second beach is even more secluded and
little used. There are sulphur pits and freshwater lakes
that you can use for swimming.
You can take one of the many buses that regularly ply
between Arambol and Mapusa and Arambol and Chopdem. It takes
around 40 minutes to reach Arambol from Chopdem for a distance
of 12 km. On market days you can take boats to Anjuna. To
move locally, hire taxis or bikes that are easily available.
