I went to Goa with a group of friends. Very memorable. Beaches, the views and everything is amazing. I also did paragliding there is the Baga beach.
Posted: February 4, 2026Experienced: November, 2023Visiting Goa with your parents is a whole different experience. You can plan slow days and relaxed evenings. Go to South Goa if you are looking for serene locations and authentic food. We stayed at a resort called Beleza by the Bay. It’s excellent with easy access to a beach.

Goa is nice, though not too safe. However, public transport is good and safe for women—this is my personal experience. South India is much safer compared to the North; the robbery rate is lower in the southern part of India. Overall, it is a nice place to travel.

We ate so muchh!! The food is amazing in Goa. Especially the places my boyfriend had picked. We stayed in Panjim at a boutique hotel (Mateus) for the first two days and enjoyed walking around that neighbourhood at night. So safe and serene. And so colorful :)! We went to ALL the viewpoints on our rented Fascino! The Suicide Point (Breathtaking btw) is something only locals know, so I went with a friend who lived there. It was absolutely amazing. We drank with every meal (as you do, in Goa)....
Posted: June 1, 2025Goa is a very nice place, although it is quite touristy, especially the north. its a small state in india, you can go around and stay in little villages. in anjuna there are more commercial parties but the south is more chill and there are less people but great vibes. if you are traveling solo, stay at a hostel, and ig you can ride a motorbike, rent one, is cheap and its a nice experience going around. i got sick, and had to go to the hospital, they were nice but it was quite inorganized.

Posted: March 13, 2025Good experience overall. I went twice. Stay was free, as someone had hosted me. Explored forts, beaches and pubs. Night travel is not safe, if travelling alone. Transportation is costly and its better to rent a vehicle once you reach. No option of ola/uber/rapido. Only private cabs are available.

South Goa is so Beautiful. Serene clean beaches , good food. Traffic from south to north Goa is bad, beaches in north in my opinion are too crowded and busy but they have amazing restaurants there. Nov was hot too.

I felt very safe traveling around in Goa, but you still need to be mindful about your surroundings just like when you’re traveling anywhere else in the world. The food was alright, not bad but not amazing either, just be careful not to eat from the restaurant close to the beaches because they save the oils from previous seasons. I didn’t really have any budget, but I spent about 550euros in 30days so it was really cheap. I stayed in a lot of different places, but mostly hostels, and they were...

Goa is one of the prettiest and safest place in India. You will greenery everywhere you go! People are sweet and believe in the simplicity and slow living in life. You can travel to places, shop, get in adventure rides.

Goa looks like a safe state, with different locations. There are a lot of security cameras in Anjuna Beach, for example. People don't usually walk, they all use motorcycles as a main source of transportation. The streets are dark by night.
Posted: March 20, 2025North Goa: Some parts are safer than the others; avoid Baga / Calangute areas alone at night. Stay in Parra/Siolim/Vagator. Great if you know how to ride a scooter. Perfect in small groups. Beaches from the Morjim - Mandrem stretch are the best in the North.
Posted: January 16, 2025Goa is pretty safe.Its a tourist attraction and very famous across India ang goa. The locals are safe and welcoming. Well cultured people. The road and public transport is pretty safe. I would suggest getting your own rented bike/car as the frequency is not that much. The infrastructure is pretty good.
Posted: December 31, 2024Goa, if you visit the right places is beautiful! One just needs to be alert as they should in all countries! Come during the shoulder season June to October for the best experience. Goa does get a lot of rowdy Indian tourist who aren’t the nicest people and the locals do not like them either.
