Goa Beach for January 

Agonda Beach

Agonda Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Goa. Situated in Agonda, this beach is made up of 3km of golden sand lined by clear, warm waters. Certain parts of the beach shelve steeply into the sea, making it inappropriate for children to swim. Adult bathers also have to be aware that the sea can get very rough at high tide, making swimming out of the question, so be sure to check to see if the flags are flying red or green. Facilities include sun loungers and parasols, plus beach bars and restaurants inside small shacks backing the beach which serve food and drinks and have bathrooms for diners.

Majorda Beach

Located in the south of Goa, Majorda Beach is a much better place for sunbathing and swimming. This beach is made up of golden sand dotted with shade-providing palm trees, which gradually gives way to shallow waters ideal for swimming. Although the sea can get rough sometimes, the waves which wash up onshore are great fun to play in. Onsite services and facilities include lifeguards, sun loungers, parasols, water sports and food shacks which serve cheap beer and snacks.

Bars and Restaurants 

Little World

Little World is one of the top rated restaurants in Goa. Located in Palolem, this restaurant specialises in breakfast and brunch dishes which are served 8.30am-8.30pm daily. The atmosphere is a chilled-out backpacker style, making Little World a great place to chat to the local owners and meet other travellers. The menu features a wide variety of dishes, from sweet and savoury pancakes, omelettes and scrambled eggs to yogurt and muesli, smoothies and local bread with homemade peanut butter. Drinks include coffee, water, fresh juices and the trademark chai tea which is said to be amazing.

Foxes Fiesta

When it comes to traditional Goan cuisine, Foxes Fiesta is the place to go. Found in Bardez, this restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and serves an Asian fusion cuisine, with several typical Goan dishes, such as chicken xacuti and pulao, fish thali and sausage pulao. There are also some classic British dishes available, such as roast dinners, fish and chips and banoffee pie, for those craving a taste of home.

Things to do in Goa in January 

Paliem Lake

If you're not a fan of the beach, enjoy a refreshing dip without the sand by making the tip to Paliem Lake. Situated in North Goa, this lake is reached by a 20-minute walk from Arambol Beach which takes you along the edge of the hills, with panoramic sea views along the way so make sure you take your camera. The lake is certainly large enough to swim in and the mud which surrounds the edge is said to have medicinal qualities, so a visit here is almost like a free spa day.

Basilica of Bom Jesus

The Basilica of Bom Jesus in Old Goa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site which guards the remains of St Francis Xavier. Considered to be one of the best examples of baroque architecture in India, this church is the country's first minor basilica and hosts masses on Sundays at 8am, 9.15am, 10.15am (in English) and 6pm and weekdays at 7am, 8am and 6pm. Bom Jesus experience retreats also take place weekly on Saturdays between 10am and 1pm in English.

Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception

The Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception is another church worthy of a visit during your holiday in Goa. Situated in Panjim and built in 1541, this church was one of the first to be built in Goa, although it was completely re-built in 1619. Today, the church is very large and features a striking white exterior, fronted by overlapping staircases. The insides of the church are fairly simple, with the backdrop behind the main altar dedicated to Mary being the most striking aspect, along with the flanking altars dedicated to Jesus and Our Lady of the Rosary.
