Promotion of Goa tourism : Agonda Beach
There are a number of breathtakingly beautiful beaches in India. Amongst the various beaches in India is the Agonda Beach. The Agonda beach is a small, picturesque and secluded beach 37 Kms from the town of Margao where nature lovers can find peace of mind. Agonda Beach is a three-kilometer long and lonely beautiful cove of white sand that is fringed with palms and casuarinas. It is dominated by a large hill to its south. There are very few facilities available here with few tourists, no souvenir stalls, and no restaurants. It is also not safe to swim out too far on this beach.
It is relatively deserted in comparision with the other beaches in India’s beach capital of Goa owing to its distances from the main cities and is the next beach after Palolem while driving towards Panaji.
Places Around Agonda Beach : The fort of Cabo de Rama is not too far from Agonda beach. It is as yet undiscovered by most visitors. The fort is named after Lord Rama, the central figure of the Hindu epic Ramayana. According to local legend, Rama stayed here with his wife Sita during the period of his 14-year exile. The atmosphere of the fort creates a sense of history and drama that takes you back in time.
