Canacona in Goa |
| The Far South District Of Canacona Ceded to the Portuguese by the Raja of Sund in the treaty of 1791, Goa's far south - Canacona district - was among the last parts of the territory to be absorbed into the Novas Conquistas, and has retained a distinctly Hindu feel. The area also boasts some of the state's most outstanding scenery. Set against a backdrop of the Jungle covered Sahyadri Hills (an extension of the Western Ghat Range), a string of pearl white coves and sweeping beaches scoop its indented coastline. Enfolded by laterite headlands and colossal piles of back boulders. |
Prime Attractions of Canacona |
|
The Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary, 10-km
southeast of Chaudi, was established in 1969 to protect a remote and
vulnerable area of forest lining the Goa- Karnataka border. Encompassing
86-sq-kms of mixed deciduous woodland, the reserve is certain to inspire
tree lovers. more.. |
|
Palolem, 2-km west of Chaudi, pops up more often in
glossy holiday brochures than any other beach in Goa
more.. |
|
Sleepy Cavelossim, straddling the coast road 11-km
south of Colva, is the last major settlement in southwest Salcete: its
only claim to fame. more.. |
|
Agonda Agonda, 10-km north of Chaudi, can
only be reached along the sinuous coast road connecting Cabo De Rama
with NH-14 at Chaudi. No signposts mark the turning and few of the
tourists that whizz past en route to Palolem pull off here, but the
beach, fringed along its entire length by Todi trees, is superb. Its
remote location is not the only reason this 3-km spread of white sand
has been bypassed by the bulldozers. Villagers here are opposed to any
kind of tourist development. At present, there are only two places to
stay over here, both situated at the far end of the beach. |
How To Get There - Canacona |
|
By Rail For the last year or two, it has
been possible to reach Canacona by direct "Superfast" Express
trains from Mumbai, Panjim and Mangalore. |
|
By Road The regions main transport artery
is the NH-17, which crawls across the Sahyadri and Karmali Ghats towards
Karnataka via the district headquarters, Chaudi. Bus services between
here and Margao are quite frequent. |
