¤ About Bogmolo Beach
In
Bogmolo, the Oberois manage a property built by Trade Wings. The building is
right on the sea. As the waves lash the parapets of the open-air restaurant,
the drone of the restless Arabian Sea lulls to sleep even the most
insomniac. Beyond are mysterious little islands, shipwrecks in the silt and,
around the hotel, plenty of pleasant eateries-each one of them claiming to
be Osibisa's favorite. That pardonable selling trick began about 10 years
ago when the Oberoi hosted the group. The sandy beach at the end of the cove
would be even more picturesque were it not for the monstrous multi-storey
edifice perched above it. Pricey café-bars blaring Western music have
crept up the beach, while the clearing below the hotel is prowled by
assiduous Kashmiri handicraft vendors. Even so, compared with Calangute Or
Colva, Bogmolo is still a small-scale resort. As long as one hasn't come to
Goa to get away from it all or party all night, then one'll find Bogmalo
congenial enough.
The beach is clean and not too crowded, the
water reasonably safe for swimming, and there are plenty of places to eat,
drink and shop. If, on the other hand, one is looking for somewhere not yet,
on the package tourist map, one'll be better off further south, at the far
end of Colva Beach or beyond. Bogmolo is just another small fishing village,
surrounded by a pair of palm fringed headlands at the northern end of Colva
bay. The presence of the sandy beach at the end of the cove makes it even
more picturesque and breathtaking. Bogmolo Beach is an ideal clean and not
too crowded, the water reasonably safe for swimming, and plenty of places to

of the restless Arabian Sea lulls to sleep even the most insomniac. This
beach is about 4 kilometres away from the Dabolim airport. Though not a very
long coastal stretch, Bogmolo is lined up with places to eat and the seafood
available at these shacks is delicious.
