The crocodile and dolphin-spotting cruises are a favourite at this pristine beach.

Colva Beach (26 km from Airport, 36 km from Panaji): Though agog with vacationers, this is place where you can slice your own space amidst parasailing lovers, swimmers, devotees (that swarm the place in October on their way to the church of Child Jesus), crowded shacks, fishermen & what not.
