Richmonde Ananta Elite in Saligao gives the perfect home base for checking out North Goa. Peaceful yet handy for all the action—beaches, historic sites, eateries, fun spots—you can hang out, explore, and then unwind in your comfy spot at the end of the day.
Day 1: Beaches, Forts, and Sunset Views
Morning:
Begin your North Goa trip with visits to Calangute and Baga Beaches, both super famous. Calangute, known as the "Queen of Beaches", is great for its liveliness, water sports, beach shacks, and those beautiful sea views. Baga Beach is right nearby and also super hyped for its vibrant vibes and cool beachside spots. Since Richmonde Ananta Elite is close by, you can chill at these amazing beaches by the Arabian Sea all morning.
After lunch, head to Fort Aguada. This awesome Portuguese-built 17th-century fort gives fantastic views of the Arabian Sea. It's one of Goa's most visited spots because of its beauty. The lighthouse and pretty surroundings there are perfect for photographers.
Evening:
Spend your evening at Candolim Beach, known for being calmer than some of North Goa's crazier spots. Walk along the shore, watch a stunning Goan sunset, then head back to Richmonde Ananta Elite. There, you can chill by the pool or just unwind in your space at the end of a long day.
Day 2: Heritage, Culture, and Local Experiences
Morning:
Kick off day two with a trip to the Basilica of Bom Jesus, a big deal in both history and religion for Goa. This UNESCO-approved church is famous for its amazing Baroque style, giving you a peek into the state's Portuguese past. The Basilica is close to Richmonde Ananta Elite, making it super easy to visit. Hop over to Panaji, Goa's capital. Check out Fontainhas, with its fun streets full of colours, cool old buildings from the Portuguese era, little shops to browse, and lots of tasty Goan food spots. With its mix of Indian and Portuguese flair, Panaji is really one of the coolest places in Goa to hang out and explore.
Evening:
You can't do a North Goa trip without checking out its energetic nightlife. Think beachside cafes, spots for live music, and fancy bars and lounges.
After all that fun, it's nice to relax. Coming back to Saligao feels like a retreat – a quiet place to recharge and avoid the crowds.
Day 3: Nature, Adventure, and Relaxation
Morning:
On the last day, explore Dudhsagar Waterfalls, one of Goa's top natural spots. They're surrounded by lots of greenery and offer stunning views, providing a refreshing break from everything else. The itinerary mentions Dudhsagrar as a major attraction for those close to Saligao. Once you're back, relax at Richmonde Ananta Elite. Hang out by the pool, chill on your balcony, or just kick back in your comfy room.
