The rocky headland or the cliffs near the beaches lend themselves ideally
for paragliding. Apart from paragliding, one can set out on Dolphin watching
boat trips. The Arambol beach offers a well-made running track for those who
want to explore the beach while jogging. Apart from that, there are many
fresh water springs and sulphur pits if someone wants to swim but is
apprehensive about the ocean currents.
The nearby village of Arambol is a typical Goan fishing village. They are
friendly people and you chat up with one of them, chances are that you get
to listen to some interesting anecdotes. The otherwise quiet Arambol beach
throbs with activities on weekends when large crowds of local picnickers
gather here for holidaying.
The beach is home to some villagers who greet visitors with an open heart.
They go out of their way to ensure that you are comfortable and look after
any important need of yours. They are the warmest people you will come
across while on this beach.
For those who want to exercise their muscles a bit, there
is a well constructed running track that extends for quite a long stretch. A little away from the beach, you shall find sulphur springs and
freshwater lakes where people take a swim and just relax.
