Best Time to Visit

The ideal time to visit is from November to February when the weather is dry and pleasant, with temperatures ranging from 20°C to 30°C. This period offers calm seas and clear skies. The months of March to May are hot and humid. The monsoon season, from June to October, brings heavy rainfall and rough seas, making swimming unsafe and the beach less accessible.
Peak Crowd: December to January, particularly during Christmas and New Year holidays. Even then, it remains less crowded than most Goan beaches.
Moderate Crowd: November, February, and on weekends.
Low Crowd: March to October, during the summer heat and monsoon season.
