A weekend getaway at South Goa's Cola Beach

Take a dip in crystal clear water of the blue lagoon at Cola Beach

Golden sand, clear waters, and unique landscape with a backdrop of palm trees and hills - that is Cola beach for you! This, relatively lesser-known beach, is South Goa's hidden treasure. The highlight of the beach is the lagoon created by a small river near the beach. Ideal for swimming and kayaking, the lagoon clearly adds to the beauty of the beach.

Uncrowded almost throughout the year, this beach is perfect for a relaxed weekend away from the bustling city. What could be better than staying at the beach and waking up to the symphony of crashing waves. Right?

On our last trip to South Goa, we decided to stay at the Blue Lagoon Resort. The resort offers a range of cottages:  Ocean View, Premium Sea View, Lagoon & Sea View, Garden View, and Jungle View.

Quaint, beautiful cottages with a breathtaking view of the sea

These charming sea view cottages are equipped with king-sized beds, private ensuite bathrooms, wifi, and private balcony. The only downside is that Cola beach is slightly disconnected from the surrounding areas and connectivity might be an issue. It's best if you have a vehicle of your own.

There are two other stay options available at the beach - Dwarka hotel, and Soneca cola beach resort that offers tented accommodation.

Food options are limited to shacks owned by these resorts. As for us, we had all our meals at the beachfront shack by Blue Lagoon Resort. Also, they provide room delivery and we ended up enjoying our meals at the balcony of our room. From European to Indian cuisine, the shack has multiple food options to explore. 

Waking up to the sound of the ocean, sipping on a chilled beer, taking a dip in the lagoon, evening walks by the beach: this is how we spent a weekend at Blue Lagoon, Cola.
