Compared
to Morjim and Ashwem, Mandrem is the most captivating beach and offers
the best option to spend the night. However, during high tide, access to
the beach is difficult. So, hoteliers around the area have constructed a
makeshift bamboo bridge to reach the beach.
You
can ask local fishermen to take you for a trip up the creek. You can
also take a walk down to Mandrem village or to Suhas Parsekar's organic
farm. Other options available are yoga and massages. You can also go for
dolphin-spotting trips. Many hotels and holiday resorts hire out
motorcycles and cars and also arrange trips for dolphin spotting.32km
away from Panaji, you can take a taxi or a auto. From Mapusa, you can
take the hourly auto service. You can also take a taxi from the Pernem
Railway Station, which is 20km away. The ambience is just correct at the
beach and so is the food. The Tandoori food and seafood are definitely
worth a try.
