GOA BEACHES
The word Calangute is said to be derived from the Konkani word- 'Koli-gutti', which means land of fishermen. Others have ascribed it to the vernacular word “Kalyangutti” (village of art) or “Konvallo-ghott “ (strong pit of the coconut tree). Once a peaceful fishing village and a mainstay for the hippies in the 60s, Calangute beach is now easily the most popular tourist destination in Goa. This highly commercialised beach attracts swarms of tourists from across the globe, boasting a myriad of options for hotels, restaurants, boutiques, spas, excursions, water-sports and bars to match every budget.
