Best Points In Goa

Best time of Visit to Goa: Last of October - November,December

North Goa

• Calangute beach (Queen of beaches, 15 km. drive from Panji, famous for its exhilarating water sports like parasailing, surfing, and water skiing of Goa. Here are multiple beach sacks. This beach remains more crowded due to safety. Near it open markets are available for handmade items.)

• Baga beach (16 km. from Panji. It’s one of the most well-developed and quieter beaches in north Goa. This beach is so nice as we can spend as much time to enjoy without getting bored. Having a number of nightspots to eat, rock, and spare some beautiful late night time. Here, can enjoy many water sports @ daytime. Night time is also available but I think it will be too risky. Afternoon tonight is the most preferable time to visit, stay and make fun there.

• Anjuna beach (18 km. far from Panji but It’s a little far from Baga beach. It is just beside Anjuna village. Not more crowded and developed but truly so peaceful beach. Some development started here to make it as enjoyable as Baga beach. Still, visitors enjoy there with safe waves with some water sports. It remains crowded up tonight to enjoy the nightlife. I experienced every beach is quite different from others. Here I collected a lot of beautiful smooth sand rocks and stones. Here can also enjoy the ride of many water sports like speed boats, bike riding, parasailing, paragliding,  etc. which are more popular. Enjoy Anjuna markets having pieces of jewelry, feni, and other handmade things which are very cheap there.

• Vagator beach

• Arambole beach

• Marmar beach

• Aguada beach

• Dona Paula beach

One day Trip Pune To Tamhinighat

 ONE DAY VISIT

#PUNE TO #TAMHINIGHAT

#Kundalika Valley#Tamhini Ghat Waterfall #Mulshi Lak # Andharban Ghat to #Lonavala

#Best #Journey in #Monsoon .

One day before, we planned to visit Tamhini Ghat. But we wear unknown about the way of it. It was monsoon. We thought in monsoon the journey to a Ghat might be so scary. Next day morning around 6 am we started our journey from Pune to Tamhini Ghat. The weather was really awesome. It took around 2 hours to reach the Tamhini Ghat . Due to non-commercialization, the road was very good.

As near as we reached there by seeing the nature around we couldn’t stop from getting down from our Scross car. The beauty of nature around us was really speechless. Everywhere the land area from table land to mountains looked like green velvety carpets. It seemed all the valleys and mountains touched the sky through a flock of dark clouds. On the mid of the road when we had seen around us found endless road spread throughout the valleys and table lands covered with the green beds. Another side we found to see Mulshi dam of backwater appears inside nature. This road leads to the waterfall at pulse which is getting crowded in monsoon. The scenic beauty we had seen really can’t be expressed in words. It is one of the best places of attraction during monsoons for nature lovers. Again we started our journey ahead. Every minute we found one more alluring of nature. On the way we enjoyed heavy rain falls, sometimes we came through the clouds. So many waterfalls and streams we had experienced which could only be discovered in monsoon. On a little far away Mulshi River started running with us throughout the road side which was overflowing with water and could be enjoyed as a window view from our Scross. Some more amazing points are there for visitors like some attractive waterfalls, a complete view of pleasant scenic beauty with Ghat, awesome valleys, and the most amazing drive on the road throughout the nature. It was really excellent feelings for us. I must suggest everyone should visit Tamhini Ghat once in monsoon.

Main Spots cover on the way : 

--Kundalika Valley

--Tamhini Ghat Waterfall

-- Mulshi Lake

--Andharban Ghat to Lonavala.

Best Time: Pre Monsoon(July-August)/Post Monsoon

Pune, Khadakwasla village

Unexplored places near Pune for one day trip

Do you want to explore unknown places around Pune within 50 KMs. One of the best places I found in my quest for new places to visit in Pune is Khadakwasla Village on the bank of the Mutha River.

Many of you have already visited Khadakwasla Dam, Khadakwasla lake, or Sinhagad fort which is nearby Khadakwasla dam. But I am sure, a few of you might have seen the romantic places of the Khadakwasla village on the bank of the Mutha river.

How I found the place:

It was just after the Covid Lockdown opened during the last part of the year 2020. I was planning for a day trip inside Pune which may be within 50 KMs from my place – Hadapsar. We (My Family) planned to visit Sinhagad fort, the lake, and then Khadakwasla dam.

We started early morning for that thinking it will cover the full day. However, the fort was closed during that time and I had a lot of time to spend.

While returning from Khadakwasla dam – just after around 1 KM – there are two ways near the dead end. If you move right from there you will reach Pune city. Since I had time, I thought to move left and explore what is there.

What is the place?

After around 2 KMs inside that, I was amazed looking at the beauty of the place. It is simply heaven on earth. The road goes toward Lavasa from Pune which was at the back side of the Khadakwasla dam and is the Khadakwasla village.

I was driving my S-Cross car with my family all alone. My left side – Mutha River flowing its way from Lavas to the Khadakwasla Dam– at the right side the mighty mountain protecting me.

However, I was afraid. Once you are there, you can only hear the sounds of birds chirping, the flow of wind, and the river. Long greenery over the mountain. Vary rarely you will find people moving or any house. I spend the whole day there with my family. Off course, I found few families there came from Lavasa.

Enjoy My Pics :

It was really an amazing place to visit mostly unexplored by Pune people even. I am sharing few pictures that I have taken there. Apart from this there are many Pune weekend unexplored places. I will share them in separate posts. I also write about best places near Pune to visit, keep visiting my blog and YouTube channel to know more
