Varca
Beach of Goa is situated at a distance of approximately 2 km to the
south of the Benaulim Beach. Though the beach is not as popular as the
other commercialized beaches in the state, it is not less than any of
them in terms of beauty or magnificence. Infact, the low popularity of
Varca Beach has resulted in keeping its peace and serenity intact. This
makes Varca the perfect destination for all those tourists who are
looking for a place to escape from the mundane tensions of the daily
life. The beauty of nature, combined with the melodious gushing of the aqua waters, makes the experience of visiting the beach a memorable one. The palm-thatched houses of the fishermen, which line the Varca Beach of India manage to give it a different look altogether. Adding to the splendor are the black lava rocks that seem to be dotting the landscape. Lining the edges of the beach are the wooden fishing boats of the local fishermen.
