Visiting 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). For the latter part of our trip, we went to stay near Anjuna Beach and we lazed around during the afternoon on the beach benches and ate some sizzler. It was a great experience.
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. The food is great, try fish thali.

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.
