Goa is the smallest state in India and it boasts to host many of the International beaches catering to domestic and the International tourists. Goa is surrounded by the Sahyadri Mountains or more commonly called as the Western Ghats on 3 sides of Goa and the one side by the Arabian Sea. Although the Arabian Sea covers entire western coastal belt of Goa, known as the Konkan Coast, each beach is different and unique in its own way due to the ambiance of the place. The sand on the beaches of North are golden while on the south are white sands. Since Goa is the smallest state, for administration purpose Goa is divided in 2 parts, north Goa and south Goa. North Goa is known as the administrative capital and South Goa more for its commercial essence.The beaches in South Goa are less crowded and clean and suited more for family excursions. Lots of rides can be availed from the south Goa including fishing rides. On the other hand the beaches in North Goa are fully commercialized and sometimes overcrowded. The beaches in north are known for different types of water sports which includes dolphin rides, sightseeing by sea, para sailing and other adventure sports.. Foreign and domestic tourists are also dotted along the entire coast of North Goa. They are seen sunbathing on these beautiful beaches.
Another striking feature on Goan roads are that Goa is the only state in India which does not have a traffic signal. The only signal one can find is on the Goa airport.
