Trip to Arambol Beach – Hippie’s Paradise

When you visit Goa, don’t miss out on Arambol Beach that is considered to be the most beautiful beaches in Goa, and borders the Mandrem Beach and Keri Beach on two sides. We reached this happening beach from Calangute that took us approx. 1 hour. It is in North Goa but on the other end near Ashwem
& Morjim. Arambol, or used to be known as Harmal, is located 17km north of Anjuna Beach in North Goa.

The newest beach developed in Goa, Arambol Beach is a part of a fisherman’s village and attracts a number of tourists across the year.

The best time to visit Arambol Beach would be during the winter months, from October to March. During this time, you can experience the cool air and pleasant atmosphere, making the Beach perfect for relaxation.

The long beach of Arambol has got everything you expect on a beach. Right from white sand, shallow waters, gentle waves to tall coconut trees lined up on the edge of the sandy shore.
