Vainguinim Beach Holidays
Vainguinim Beach is set against a backdrop of low-lying hills and flanked by the Arabian Sea. The bay is lined with a good selection of hotels - many luxurious five-star properties with their own stretch of sand. Holidays on Vainguinim Beach offer a peaceful retreat. Much of the beach has been bought up by hotels, so beach traders are banned here. Water sports-enthusiasts can enjoy water skiing, jet skiing, scuba diving and windsurfing.
This area was originally occupied by The Jesuits in the 16th-century when it was nothing more than an orchard. Vainguinim Beach is surrounded by a wealth of history and sightseeing. The resort is located just four miles from the Goan capital of Panjim, with its colonial Portuguese architecture and magnificent cathedral. Panjim also offers a wider selection of bars and restaurants.
Evenings in Vainguinim Beach can be spent enjoying cocktails or strolling along the sand. Another popular haunt is the casino at the Cidade de Goa Beach Resort. Here keen gamblers will find poker, blackjack, and roulette tables as well as the obligatory slot machines. Vainguinim Beach is approximately a one-hour drive from the airport.
