From coastal cruising and dolphin spotting to snorkelling, fishing and a traditional Goan lunch, this half-day trip packs plenty into a few hours. You'll leave from Hawaii Beach in Dona Paula and head towards Bat Island, a small offshore spot surrounded by pristine waters and natural scenery. Along the way, keep an eye on the waves, as dolphins are often spotted swimming and playing in these waters.
Once you anchor near the island, it's time to enjoy the water. Grab a snorkel and see what's waiting beneath the surface, take a refreshing swim, or simply relax on board and soak up the scenery. If you're in the mood to try something new, you can join a bottom fishing session, with the crew on hand to share a few tips and help you catch local fish species.
Then, you'll head to a nearby beach, where you can stretch out on the sand, take another dip or snorkel in the clear waters. Throughout the trip, there are snacks and drinks, including water, soft drinks, red wine and beer, so you can relax and enjoy the experience. You'll also tuck into a traditional Goan lunch on the beach, serving up a taste of the region's local flavours. With a mix of wildlife, time on the water and laidback coastal scenery, this trip is a great way to experience a different side of Goa.
