    Kayaking in Goa

    Kayaking In Goa 

    You will have to travel miles within India to find a person who hasn’t heard of Goa. The smallest state in India is synonymous with an overwhelmingly beautiful outdoor life; however, not everyone may be aware of a great way to explore the waters with Kayaking in Goa.

    As a tourist, you have plenty of culture and cuisine options to savor. As an adventurer, you are spoilt for choice, thanks to the extensive coastline, green forests, rocky cliffs, and raging rivers

    There are snorkeling trips near quiet beaches where you can snorkel to your heart’s content. Cycling trips where you travel to the most scenic spots and discover hidden gems throughout the state of Goa. There are also kayaking trips where you traverse the sublime waters of Goa and see the coastline in a way you have never seen before.

    Day Kayaking in Goa

    Day kayaking takes place early in the morning when the waves are calm and the skies are clear. During the day, kayaking trips in Goa offer you a chance to admire the white sand beaches from the ocean. The music from the shacks and the laughter of people resonates in the air while you ride the waves.

    Moonlight kayaking in Goa

    Moonlight kayaking is in stark contrast to day kayaking and is an experience in itself. You head out after dark when the moon is making its slow ascent in the sky. Moonlight kayaking is done when the moon is full, allowing you to enjoy the best moonlit views.

    As you kayak out into the sea, you are sure to be mesmerized by the moonlight spread across the Goan landscape. The beach is bathed in an alluring shade of white and the water in a distinct silver glow.

    You'll be spending time on the water, drifting along with the waves while noticing the beach from a new angle. Away from the lights and music of the shacks on the shore, you can enjoy the calm and peace. The adventure usually ends at one of the shacks before you head home for the night. This is definitely one surreal experience that you do not want to miss out on.

    Goa kayaking packages

    Kayaking sessions can range from a minimum duration of 30 minutes to a maximum of 2 hours. Depending on the amount of time you spend offshore, the cost can range between INR 500 to INR 1000.

    The experience is suitable for first-timers, families with children, or experienced adventurers. Goa kayaking packages usually take place at Baga, Bambolim, and Calangute, but there are more beaches where you can go kayaking now.

    Best time to go/Weather

    Barring the monsoon months, kayaking in Goa can be done almost all year round. The weeks leading up to the rains and during the monsoon, the waves can get rough and unpredictable. For all other months in the year, you will be allowed to go out in kayaks as long as the water is calm and the tide is right.

    Goa is a state which is well connected by all modes of transport. The closest international airport is Dabolim, located approximately 30 kilometers from Panaji. It is connected to all major Indian cities as well as international destinations.

    Madgaon and Vasco-da-Gama are the primary railway stations in the state. These railway stations are well connected to other parts of the country. Goa is also well connected by major highways to other parts of the country. The state also has its own bus service which provides connectivity to the rest of India making it easy to travel to this tiny state.

    Within Goa, the best way to get around is by road. You can hire two-wheelers and four-wheelers easily that are very economical. There are also auto rickshaws you can take easily to move around within the city.

    For your kayaking adventure, it is best to wear loose and comfortable clothing such as t-shirts and shorts. Swimwear has to be worn underneath. Sandals or floaters are sufficient as footwear. If kayaking in the day, you can choose to wear a hat and sunglasses as a shield against the warm sun.

    Sturdy footwear is compulsory when you venture out into the sea. As such flip-flops or any footwear that can easily slide off will not be allowed. For the best experience, restrictive clothing such as denim jeans should not be worn. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry or carrying expensive gadgets on your kayaking trip

    Kayaking does not require you to carry a lot. If kayaking in the day, sunscreen and sunglasses along with a hat might offer you protection against the sun. Otherwise, all that you need to carry is a towel and an extra pair of clothes. A water bottle and a camera are optional items that you might choose to bring along.

    Kayaking is an easy activity but all participants must ensure a basic fitness level. Patients with any prevailing or long term medical issues are advised to consult their physicians before deciding to be a part of this adventure.

      Last month we completed Kedarkantha Trek through TGN. Was our first trek ever and couldn't have been better. Everything right from the pickup to drop at dehradhun station was totally worthy. On booking the trek we were guided with respect to the gears required and the level of fittness. Emails for bagpacking and all the required checklists were circulated well before time.Dirver contact details and names of other particioants were also notified on watsapp .On the trek experience was out of the world with surprisingly awesome food even at an altitude of 12,500 feet's. Everything in inclusions were provided FOC. Would totally recommend TGN !!! Absolutely value for money !!!

      'I have availed the serices twice. The first was for the Valley of flowers/ Hemkund sahib trek and the next was the Kedarkantha trek. I have had a pleasant experience both times. I have found the package reasonable and the guide and facilities which they provide are top notch. The only concern I had on both the treks was that the itenerary was a bit too stretched and on both occassions we completed the trek in half the time and left early, but that might be because me and my friend have good stamina. So, cant blame TGN for that fully. All in all i would alys recommend TGN to others. Special mention to Venkat, who has been my point of contact at TGN on both occassions and I have been really impressed with him.'
