With an array of captivating sights awaiting you, this road trip promises to be an unforgettable journey filled with wonderful memories.

If you’re in Mumbai and looking for a serene and soothing vacation, why not explore the scenic and laid-back side of Goa, specifically South Goa?

With five days to spare, this destination promises a secluded and tranquil experience. While North Goa may be known for its nightlife, South Goa offers a more vibrant and relaxed atmosphere, perfect for slow travellers seeking peace and rejuvenation.

The beaches in South Goa are stunning, cleaner, and less crowded, providing a more tranquil setting to enjoy the waves and watch the sunset in peace. With fewer shacks and restaurants lining the beaches, you can fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds you.

While here, make sure to explore the enchanting Netravali Wildlife Sanctuary and Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary, where you can witness the region’s diverse flora and fauna. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit picturesque spots like Butterfly Beach, Galgibaga Beach, Palolem Beach, and Colva Beach, each offering its unique charm and beauty.

Try Bengaluru too:

Embark on a rejuvenating road trip from Bengaluru to Coorg and Ooty during the monsoon season. Coorg, also known as the “Scotland of India,” boasts of lush coffee plantations, mist-covered hills, and enchanting waterfalls. On the other hand, Ooty, the “Queen of Hill Stations,” greets you with its serene lakes, vast gardens, and pleasant weather.

If you are in New Kolkata, don’t miss out on these places: 

Escape to the enchanting beauty of Sikkim, Samsing, or Kurseong if you’re based in Kolkata or its vicinity. These idyllic destinations offer a perfect monsoon retreat with their mesmerizing landscapes, soothing rain showers, and abundant greenery. Sikkim, in particular, beckons with its rich cultural heritage, offering you the chance to participate in vibrant festivals like Phang Labsol and Bhadauria Purnima.

Please Note: As you embark on these exciting journeys, remember to pack light and equip yourself with umbrellas and raincoats to stay prepared for the monsoon’s occasional surprises. Additionally, take a moment to verify the local guidelines and safety measures in the areas you plan to visit to ensure a safe and pleasant travel experience.

So, whether you’re seeking adventure, cultural exploration, or simply wish to unwind amidst nature’s beauty, the long weekends in August provide the perfect opportunity to make cherished memories and embrace the monsoon magic.
