Rajbag beach is a serene and picturesque destination that took me by surprise with its pristine beauty. It is a hidden gem in Goa that deserves to be preserved and cherished by all visitors. Located in the Canacona region of South Goa, this beach is a lesser-known and one of the cleanest beaches in India. It is situated just 7 km away from the famous Palolem Beach, making it easily accessible for tourists.
The beach is a nesting ground for the Olive Ridley turtles, which is a protected species. The northern part of the beach is reserved for the turtles, giving it the nickname "Turtle Beach." It is one of the three places in Goa where these turtles come to lay their eggs, making it a unique and special place to visit.
Rajbag beach is situated on the banks of the Galgibag river, about 56 km away from Colva and 54 km away from Margao. The best time to visit this beach is during the winter months from October to March when the weather is pleasant and the sea is calm. However, even during the summer months, the beach is a great place to relax and unwind. During the monsoon season, the beach is less frequented due to the rough seas and inclement weather.
Overall, Rajbag beach is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Goa. It is a peaceful and beautiful beach that deserves to be kept clean and preserved for future generations to enjoy.
