I was relaxing alone on Palolem Beach at the Wavelet Beach Resort in December 2023. I must say right away that the sunsets on Palolem beach are of extraordinary beauty. The wave is not very high, the entrance to the water is gentle. Clean sand on the shore and in the water: without debris, shells, corals, algae. The water temperature is super comfortable. I don't know how many degrees it is, but when you come in, you feel a pleasant freshness. I did not leave the water for 1.5-2 hours, hanging in the weightlessness of salt water like a hippopotamus. But the water is not very clear, and the sand is gray, not as beautiful as they say in some descriptions of the beach. To my surprise, despite the large number of stray cows and dogs, everything is very clean on the beach, there are garbage cans. Every day I watched how the sand was swept and garbage collected at each neck. There are many sun beds with umbrellas, which can be occupied at least for the whole day, taking a drink or a meal in an adjacent cafe. There were very few people on the beach, and Hindu companies appeared on weekends. Hindus are very friendly and welcoming people. Stores usually don't like to bargain, they give in reluctantly. I was resting alone and I didn't feel any danger.

We rested in Goa for 9 days, during which we traveled it far and wide. So, Palolem Beach is the most beautiful beach in Goa, it is not for nothing that it is called the Indian Seychelles. It is quiet, clean, the sea is warm (warmer than on other beaches), there are a lot of palm trees, there are no beggars. A separate charm is monkey Island. There are also many hangouts in the area, cafes with delicious food, souvenir shops with handmade decorations.

Nice beach, less waves than on other beaches. There are many cafes, you can go boating, or rent a canoe. It's romantic to have dinner on the beach in the evening, when the cafe serves tables right on the beach, overlooking the sea.
