Hotels in Goa, India

Goa sits on India's west coast along the Arabian Sea, famous for its Portuguese colonial forts and year-round warm weather (mid-70s to 90s°F / 24-32°C). Winters are dry and perfect for partying at North Goa's Baga Beach or trying watersports like parasailing in the Arabian Sea, while the rainy summer months (June-September) are ideal for exploring the 16th-century Basilica of Bom Jesus in Old Goa or scoring cheap stays in quieter South Goa spots like Palolem. If you're into live music, check out the trance scene at Anjuna's Wednesday flea market-it started with hippies in the '60s and still packs a crowd.
