Adventure in Goa
Parasailing
High fliers amongst the speed lovers can opt for parasailing. Both the Taj
and Bogmallo Resort hotels provide the necessary equipment for this enthralling
sport. Theres a rope about 300 feet long attached to the parasail
harness at one end and to the speedboat at the other.
River Cruises
The Goa Tourism Development Corporation (GTDC) runs a variety of river cruises
on the Mandovi river daytime, sunset and moonlight. There are two
types of day cruises -- from the Panaji jetty, down the Mandovi into the
Zuari bay and up the Mandovi to Aldona and a mineral water spring.
Water Scooter
Water scooters accommodate two people on a ride. This action sport provides
all the thrills of a motorbike with the softness of an ocean instead of
hard tar road beneath the feet.
Water Skiing
For the speed-lovers Goa offers the thrills of venturing into the sea on
speedboats. The high-class speedboats which are available in some places,
can achieve speeds of up to 30-40 miles an hour. These crafts, which can
carry between six to eight people, are available at the Cidade de Goa, Bogmallo
Beach Resort, and Taj Hotels.
Water Sports
Blessed with rivers, backwaters and a long coastline, Goa is ideally located
for water sport activities like sailing, para sailing, wind surfing, etc.
Skim the waves. Surf the seas. Float across the skies. The fabulous golden
Goan coast is sprinkled with water sports excitements from windsurfing to
paragliding.
Wind Surfing
Windsurfing is a unique blend of surfing and sailing, which requires the
surfer to adjust his strength and balance to the changing patterns of wind
and water. To the expert who has honed himself in all these nuances, windsurfing
can indeed be an exhilarating experience. Windsurfing trainers and experts
alike claim Dona Paula bay to be the ideal location for the beginners.
