Situated along the west coast of India, North Goa is one of two areas of which the state of Goa is made up, the other being South Goa. For many years, the state was a Portuguese colony and there is still evidence of this history in the architecture and cuisine of the region. More recently, North Goa was a popular spot for hippies to gather in the 1960s, and much of this influence remains today. There are full moon parties on the area’s white sandy beaches and a wealth of yoga retreats to join. And there are plenty of other cultural artefacts to enjoy as well, including the Saturday Night Market in Arpora and Museum of Goa. Beaches are one of the top allures in Goa; so read on for our list of the best beach resorts in North Goa, India, that you’ll enjoy staying in.
What to look forward to in North Goa:
- In February or March each year, the state of Goa hosts Goa Carnaval with parades filled with vibrant floats and dances. While celebrations are spread across the region, the main event occurs in Panaji in North Goa. I would love to see the cultural celebration for myself and even get to try the local cuisine served throughout.
- North Goa has some of Goa's most pristine beaches, such as the relaxed Baga Beach and activity-filled Candolim. To know more about the beaches, you can check out the information on Goa Tourism Development Corporation's website.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to beach. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on October 25, 2025.
Beach life in North Goa
If you’re looking to enjoy the best of North Goa’s remarkable shores, Sinquerim Beach should be at the top of your list. This beach is only about a 30-minute drive from the state capital of Panaji and has many water activities. Other than swimming, travellers can try parasailing and scuba diving here.
For a different vibe, visit Anjuna Beach. Apart from the usual things to do in North Goa, this area boasts a flea market where you can pick up souvenirs and put your bargaining skills to the test. Next, consider going to Arambol Beach. Nestled in a fishing village, it has an exciting nightlife to offer.

Traveler's tips
This hotel is near a promenade, perfect for evening strolls. I often take my dog on a walk along this promenade and the public park nearby. However, personally, my favorite thing about this place is a vendor, right outside the park, selling mouth-watering pain puris. Whenever I am in the area, I stop by for a plate of sev puri and suka bhel, dry puffed rice mix. I can personally vouch for the food here.
