Snorkeling Day Trip and Beach Barbecue in Goa

Meet your driver in your hotel lobby at 8:30 a.m. where, depending on the day’s availability, you’ll head south to Coco Beach or Panjim Jetty from your Goa hotel. You’ll board a boat and head out on the Arabian Sea, south to Monkey Island, where you’ll see plenty of tropical fish, birds, and maybe even a playful dolphin jumping. Arrive at Palolem Beach—known by locals as Monkey Island—and prepare for a day of snorkeling and family fun. This beautiful Goan destination was featured in The Bourne Supremacy and has fans across the globe thanks to its picturesque ocean views. Wander through towering trees and quiet beach shacks on your way to the island, where your guide will provide a safety overview and briefing on the day. Once you’re up to speed, head below the water’s surface on an underwater snorkeling adventure, alone or with your guide (as you choose). Spend 3-4 hours dipping into the coral wonderland where colorful fish swim freely. Break on the beach to relax in the sun as often as you’d like and enjoy the incredible scenery while you munch on your pre-packed snacks.  Enjoy an afternoon lunch on the beach of a traditional Goan barbecue with either roasted meat or fish, Sip cool drinks near the shore before heading back to the mainland for the return trip to your hotel.
