Goa isn't one place — it's two moods. The north is markets, beach shacks and nightlife; the south is palm-fringed calm. Do both and you get the full range.

North

Sunset at Fort Aguada, flea markets around Baga and Anjuna, and long lazy lunches at the shacks.

South & Old Goa

The UNESCO churches of Old Goa, the Latin lanes of Fontainhas, and the wide quiet sands of Palolem. Chase the Dudhsagar falls if the season's right. November to February is peak — sunny, breezy and buzzing.
