About the Destination

Overview

Casino Pride is one of the most popular floating casinos anchored in the Mandovi River in Panaji. The vessel is spread across three floors, offering a comprehensive gaming and entertainment experience. The lower two floors are dedicated to the gaming area, featuring a wide array of options from Indian favorites like Teen Patti and Andar Bahar to international games such as Roulette, Blackjack, and Baccarat, along with numerous slot machines. The atmosphere is energetic, with live gaming tables drawing in crowds, especially during the evenings. The top floor houses a multi-cuisine restaurant and a large bar, often accompanied by live music or dance performances, typically with a Bollywood theme. The entry fee usually includes a package of unlimited food, drinks, and a set amount of playing chips, making it an all-inclusive night out. A dedicated kids' zone with games and activities is available, though the primary environment is adult-oriented.

Best Time to Visit

The casino is a year-round, all-weather destination. However, the best time to visit Goa is from November to February when the weather is cool and pleasant. This is also the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds. For a less crowded experience, consider visiting on a weekday during the shoulder seasons of October or March. The monsoon months (June to September) see fewer tourists, which can mean a more relaxed visit, though heavy rains might affect your travel plans to and from the jetty.
Peak Crowd: November-January, all weekends, long weekends, and festival holidays like Christmas and New Year's Eve.
Moderate Crowd: October, February-March, and weekday evenings.
Low Crowd: June-September (monsoon season), and weekday afternoons.
