ARAMBOL GOA BEACH
Arambol Beach is 50 kms from Panaji. A unique
beach in the North Goa, is both rocky and sandy beach and much sought after.
It has a sweet water pond right on the shore.
Arambol is along the Goa border with its fresh water lagoon. Due to its
isolation, some tourists has been unable to reach this beach.It is the
16-km-long sea beach. The main beach has adequate body surfing and there are
several attractive bays a short walk to the north.
Beyond an
idyllic, rocky-bottomed cove, the trail emerges to a board strip of soft
white sand hemmed in on both sides by steep cliffs. A small fresh-water lake
extends along the bottom of the valley into a thick jungle,just behind it.
Fed by boiling hot springs, the lake is lined with sulphurous mud, which,
smeared over the body, dries to form a surreal, butter-coloured shell.
The resident hippies swear it's good for you and spend much of the day
tiptoeing naked around the shallow like refugees from some obscure tribal
initiation ceremony - much to the amusement of Arambol's Indian visitors.
