For the water sports lover, Goa is adventure holiday haven. From slip and slide routines amidst salty sprays to the adrenaline high of heart stopping dips and turns, the deep blue waters of the Arabian Sea are full of excitement.
From parasailing, water skiing, banana boat rides to scuba diving, snorkeling and underwater walks to jet skiing, wind surfing, catamaran sailing to spotting dolphins and crocodiles, avid adventure buffs can have their fill.
Fishing options are plentiful and include sport fishing, reef fishing and deep sea fishing. Riding the wind on vivid kites or windsurfing, there is apparently no sport that is unavailable here.
There is nothing more rejuvenating that taking a dip in the ocean and if you add speed, thrills and total abandon, Goa fulfills its promise of a dream beach destination.
To make the best of the holiday experience, heed safety tips. Insist on life jackets, avoid alcohol, do not venture into the sea during monsoon. Use certified boat men and do not take children on a water sports spree.
