Location:
3-km From Panjim, North Goa
Also Known As: Gasper Dias
Nearby Attraction: Aguada Fort
Best Time To Visit: November To March
 On
the way to Dona Paula, 1-km ahead of the confluence of the Arabian
Sea and Mandvi River, under the palm shade, is "Gasper Dias"
or Miramar Beach and is just 3-km away from the capital city of
Panjim.
In Portuguese language 'Miramar'
stand for viewing the sea. Situated on a good location for evening
walks, the coast is spread upto 2-km, having a fine silvery sand
bed. From here one has an excellent view of the Aguada fort just
across the Mandovi River.
PLACES TO STAY
Mirroring the
village's rapid rise as a package tour resort, Colva's plentiful
accommodation ranges from swish campuses of chalets and swimming
pools to a fair selection of good value guesthouses in between. Most
of the mid and top of the range places are strung out along the Main
Beach Road or just behind it. Budget rooms lie amid the more
peaceful palm groves and paddy fields north of here: the quarter
known as Ward 4, which is accessible via the path that winds north
from Johnny Cool's Restaurant, or from the other side via a lane
leading west off the Main Colva-Vasco Road.
