COVELOSSIM BEACH (Introduction)
Cavelossim Beach, straddling the coast road 11-km south of Colva, is the last major settlement in southwest Salcete: its only claim to fame. A short way beyond the village's picturesque church square, a narrow lane veers left across an open expanse of paddy fields to the Cavelossim-Assolna ferry crossing near the mouth of the Sal River.
If one is heading south to Canacona, turn left off the ferry and carry on as far as Assolna Bazaar, clustered around a junction on the main road. A right turn at this crossroads puts you on track for Canacona.
MABOR
Carry straight on at the junction just past the square in Cavelossim and one'll eventually arrive at Mobor, where Colva beach fades into a rounded sandy spur at the mouth of the Assolna River. This would be an exquisite spot if it weren't the site of South Goa's largest, and most obtrusive, package tourist enclave.
Crammed together on to a narrow spit of dunes between the surf and estuary, the holiday inns and beach resorts combine to create a holiday camp ambience that has as little to do with Goa as their architecture.
Located just about 11 kms, South Of Colva, South Goa is this Cavelossim Beach which is very charming & very near to Colva Beach. The best time to visit Cavelossim Beach is from November To March.
This is a small stretch of beach along the south of Colva beach along the south Goa coastline. It was an isolated beach but recently there is a growth of five star resorts in this area .
