Think you know South Goa? There’s more than beaches — step into ancient villages, sacred forests, secret lagoons, and forgotten forts.

Submerged Village of Curdi

Kurdi resurfaces only in summer when the water level drops. Walk through ruins of temples and homes swallowed by the Salaulim dam.

Netravali Bubbling Lake

Located in Netravali village, this mysterious lake has bubbles rising constantly. Locals believe it’s sacred — and science calls it natural gases.

Rivona Caves

Once used by Buddhist monks, these caves near Rivona village hold carvings, meditation spots, and lots of legends.

Cabo de Rama's Hidden Beaches

Most stop at the fort — few know about the quiet, secluded coves below. Ideal for a peaceful escape and a hidden picnic spot.
