1. Calangute Beach – the clean and crowded dream destination of solo travellers

Calangute beach is undoubtedly the most popular and the longest beach in North Goa. Otherwise known as Queen of Beaches, it is located at a distance of 16 km north of Panaji. Since it is one of the most famous beaches, it is crowded. Hence, I suggest solo travellers who love people’s company to hit this beach, or else this is not the beach you expect out of India’s favourite party destination. Even though the beach is crowded, it is very clean and maintained well by local authorities. That said, the view from Calangute beach is eye-catching during the night, concealing the serene ambience, making the place a dream destination for backpackers.

2. Palolem Beach – shake your legs at the beach’s silent disco

Palolem beach is another best and cleanest beach to visit in Goa. It is located in Margao, South Goa. One peculiarity of Palolem beach is its crescent-shaped territory. The crescent-shaped structure allows the travellers to relish the beach’s ends from its centre. Also, Palolem beach attracts tourists with its neatly arranged rich wooden huts and palm groves that make it greener than all other sunny beaches in Goa. The beach is also famous for its cleanliness, nightlife, and silent discos, where travellers use headphones to groove to the song.

3. Morjim Beach – the cleanest beach with glorious wildlife surroundings

Another vibrant site in the beach paradise of India is Morjim beach. Morjim beach, located in Panaji, North Goa, is one of the ten best beaches in Goa. It is renowned as the nesting place for olive ridley sea turtles and is home to endangered species. Morjim beach is calmer and more serene than Calangute beach. It is also considered one of the safest beaches in Goa for swimming. If you are a nature lover, you can even visit its wildlife. Apart from all this, Morjim beach is another cleanest beach, and it can hand you the purest enjoyment in the water!

4. Arambol Beach – the beach with delicious eateries & lagoons

Arambol beach, located 50 km to the north of Panaji, is noted for its sweet water lagoon. It is also popular for its immaculate environment, and the locals believe the sand here has healing properties. It also has cliffs which spread on both sides. If you are a fun-loving person interested in daring activities, you can give yourself a treat by paragliding from a nearby hill. Arambol also has a freshwater lake that merges with the sea, which is worth visiting. If you look around a bit more, you will find shacks that serve all kinds of cuisines. However, the local foods of Goa taste the best here.

5. Anjuna Beach – the shopping hub of travellers

Anjuna beach is another cleanest beach in Goa, famous for its water sports, including parasailing, jet skiing, water scooter, etc. This beach is located at a distance of 18 km north of Panaji, North Goa. The beach is also famous for its trance parties, western seafood, hippie traditions, cultural delights, etc. It houses a large number of hotels and hostels, which are budget-friendly for locals as well as for tourists.

Ashvem beach is another clean and less crowded beach to enjoy your vacation in Goa.
