COLA BEACH
COLA BEACH
Cola is a stunningly beautiful hidden beach in South Goa that very few tourists know of. This is so remote that it feels like a private beach. It remains hidden by thick vegetation, palm trees, and hilly terrain. The coconut trees that line its shore make it look beautiful. Cool and fresh breeze of the palm trees refreshes the mind. There are rice and paddy fields too. Cola looks beautiful from the top of a path that leads to the beach and through the trees.
There are actually two small bays here, which are separated by a small hill. You can climb to the top for an even more beautiful view of the surrounding areas. The smaller beach is sometimes called ‘Little Cola’.
It is much quieter and cleaner than most other Goa beaches, as there are very few tourists, even in the peak tourist season. This makes Cola a great place for a nice relaxing holiday. There is no nightlife here, but you can hold your own private party in complete privacy on the beach.
Swimming is relatively safe. But the depth changes abruptly and there are also some rocks on the Arabian Sea bed. So it is best to stay close to the shore. In most times, there are no lifeguards on the beach.
The lagoon
The blue lagoon is the highlight of Cola beach. This is what distinguishes Cola from the other beaches of Goa. There is a small creek that comes out from the thick vegetation and meets the Arabian Sea here, but just before the confluence it forms a fresh water lagoon. Walk down the stairs from the Cola Beach Road and you will reach this lagoon. You can also approach the lagoon from the sea. In high tide, water from the sea comes rushing in through the sand. But at other times, a thin sand bar separates the lagoon and the sea.
