Anjuna, Vagator, Orzan and Baga, Goa, India (08/03/19-10/03/19)

We are now heading up to the North of Goa so we had to take three local buses to get here. We booked to stay in a ‘tree house’ at Anjuna beach which sounds cooler than it was. The tree house was basically an open air room built on wooden planks with a mosquito net around and a curtain (which the wind kept blowing open). We had a mattress on the wooden plank and it was comfortable but we felt like we were going back to the camping life again and Jonho got bitten by bugs alot!

On the day we arrived, we just chilled out on the beach and in the evening went to a bar with live music on. The singer was awful, but it was quite funny. The beach wasn’t very nice here but we were told this before we arrived but heard it was good night life. The night life was actually just a few bars playing really loud techno music so it wasn’t really our thing!

The next day, we hired a scooter and drove to another couple of beaches. First we went to Vagator and Orzan which are basically the same beach (you just have to walk across some rocks). These beaches were smaller, a bit nicer than Anjuna beach and had quite a few more Indians here, maybe because it was weekend. They also had the techno music playing. We sunbathed, had lunch here and then drove to Baga beach. This beach was HUGE. It had lots of bars/restaurants and hotels built up around it and was really busy with tourists and Indians on holiday. It was very different to the rest of the beaches in Goa. In the evening, we went to the Saturday night market which was good. There were tons of stalls full of the usual stuff they sell (sarongs, clothes, spices, ornaments, ect..) and they had street food stalls and a bar. There was live music on here, but again, we don’t think they will be making it onto the x

Xfactor anytime soon. We headed back to the beach and went to a couple of beach bars which were pretty busy.
