Hotels in North Goa, India
North Goa, located on India's west coast, is famous for its sandy beaches like Calangute and Baga, and its Portuguese heritage visible in Old Goa's 16th-century cathedrals. The climate stays warm year-round, with dry winters (November to February) perfect for trying parasailing and jet-skiing in the Arabian Sea, while the hot summers (March to May) bring cheaper hotel rates and quieter stretches like Anjuna Beach. You can split your time between the party vibe of Baga's shacks with live acoustic music and the relaxed hippie markets in Anjuna, where winter attracts the most visitors.
