Is Goa safe for women?
Goa, 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.

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 everything from ok to very nice. But I recommend Hideout Anjuna! It’s very safe, clean and the people working there became like a family to me.
