Goa 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.
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 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.
Posted: July 12, 2024I stayed at Casa Jaali which was cheap and lovely. Great service and I felt very safe. It was decorated really well and in a quieter part of Goa. I’d highly recommend it. There are lots of yoga classes and restaurants/bars within walking distance. The restaurant at the hotel is also great and they regularly have entertainment.

Yes Goa is safe . You can enjoy the food and the vibes of the place . We had been to North Goa where 'susegad ' is real ... The weather was awesome with the rains and the sea was inviting and clean ..
Posted: March 6, 2024Experienced: February, 2024It was a fantastic experience in Goa with my group. It was my second time visiting Goa. We explored two pubs, visited four beaches, and enjoyed water sports. The food experience near the beach area was wonderful, and we also indulged in some shopping.
Posted: January 30, 2024Honestly best traveling experience ever This was my first time traveling solo and I met wonderful people made new friends, explored new cultures and I loved it. My journey was full of new experiences, music, dancing, mingling, playing around, trying new things, creating, and so much more.

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.
