Arambol Beach
A large and sprung out village near
the seashore, Arambol can be approached by a road which winds across
the plateau and down through the cashew trees. The beach is an uninterrupted
and stunning stretch of curving sand, still unspoilt in comparison
to other beaches. The beach is quiet except on Sundays, when a large
crowd of local picnickers gather here for holidaying.
The villagers are friendly and the place is less touristy allowing
you to have a close experience of local life and culture. There
is relaxed environment and peace and tranquility attracts many day-trippers
from other beaches nearby. There are miles long uninterrupted beaches
with well-made track running around. The second beach is even more
secluded and little used. There are sulphur pits and freshwater
lakes that you can use for swimming.
Transportation
You can take one of the many buses that regularly ply between Arambol
and Mapusa and Arambol and Chopdem. It takes around 40 minutes to
reach Arambol from Chopdem for a distance of 12 km. On market days
you can take boats to Anjuna. To move locally, hire taxis or bikes
that are easily available.
