Insider Tips
What to do before you fly.
Tip 01
Fly into Mopa
The new airport is closer to North Goa beaches and quieter than Dabolim.
Tip 02
Rent a scooter
₹400–600/day. Always carry your licence — police checks are common in season.
Tip 03
Pre-book Dec–Jan
Stays and Sunburn passes sell out by October for the December peak.
Tip 04
Carry a power bank
Beach days, long taxi rides and late nights drain phones fast.
“The best Goa trips are the ones you didn't over-plan. Leave one whole day blank — that's the day you'll remember.”
