Overnight Houseboat Trip In Mandovi River – A Great Treat For Nature Lovers
The first images that cross the minds of people when they think about Goa are those of sun kissed sandy beaches and deep blue waters extending up to the horizon. Hence most people are actually surprised to learn about the dense mangrove forests known for their great biodiversity, making the landscape of Goa. These forests, which are supported by the six rivers flowing through the state, are home to various forms of wild animal and plant life, which are unique to the region. One of the best ways for the visitors to explore the beauty of these mangrove forests at close quarters is by booking an overnight house boat trip in Mandovi River.
A house boat trip on the Mandovi River proves to be extremely relaxing and refreshing for people visiting Goa. It provides them with an entirely different view of the tourist hot spot, which is otherwise more popular for its fast, thrilling and carefree lifestyle. However, spending just a few hours on the house boat as it moves at a slow pace along the backwaters of the Mandovi River, changes this perspective significantly. The trip, which commences from Calangute, Banga takes the participants on a mesmerizing journey to explore the best sites that are often hidden by the mangroves flanking the banks of Mandovi River.
In addition to getting an opportunity to enjoy the still largely unexplored natural treasures of Goa, the overnight trip enables the participants to take part in a variety of other activities. These primarily include fishing, bird watching and crocodile spotting. They are also able to relish the authentic Goan cuisine in the form of a sumptuous sea food dinner and a delicious breakfast of traditional Goan dishes. The entire trip lasts for about 21 hours and is suitable for individual holiday makers, young and old couples as well as family and corporate outings. The memorable trip makes for a perfect getaway from the stress and monotony of everyday living.
