A Strange Sight
November 27, 2009 – Day 337 – Benaulim Beach, Goa, India
Benaulim is a very, very quiet beach that seems to attract mostly older tourists and many from Russia. There are so few tourists and virtually no touts aside from 1 or 2 fruit sellers. We walked down to Colva Beach, about 15 minutes down the beach from Benaulim, to see what it was like and discovered Benaulim was the better choice for us.

Colva is very, very busy but with domestic Indian tourists enjoying jet skis and parasailing, all while fully clothed and with their family members and friends standing in large clusters on the sand. As far as a beach goes, it looks pretty strange when everyone is walking around in jeans and long sleeves!

Little to report today except that we are having an overload of sunlight and getting a bit burned. If that’s the worst that happens today, then I think we’re just alright!
