Best Time To Visit: November To March
Cavelossim,
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.Hotels
