Mandrem

Mandrem Beach, nestled in North Goa, offers a tranquil escape from the bustling crowds of more popular Goan beaches. Known for its soft, white sands and calm, shallow waters, it’s a haven for families and those seeking a peaceful retreat. A defining feature is the seasonal “lagoon” formed by the Mandrem Creek, creating a picturesque spot for swimming and wading, especially for children. While development is increasing, Mandrem still retains a laid-back vibe, with a scattering of beach shacks offering delicious seafood and a more relaxed atmosphere than some of Goa’s more frenetic coastal stretches. The presence of Olive Ridley sea turtle nesting sites further adds to the beach’s unique character, reminding visitors of the natural beauty that needs to be preserved.
