Came here looking for the best beach vacation spots in India?
Good boys.
You have basically got two options: Goa and Kerala.
Where to go depends entirely on what kind of person you are, and
what kind of beach vacation spots take your fancy.
First, Goa beach vacations.
Goa, for the backpacker. For the tourist who wants to frolick and
go mad and enjoy the little hippie atmosphere that's still left in
India. Goa, for beaches with shades, vendors, drinks, tanning.
Vacation in Goa is as different as it comes from a beach vacation in
Kerala - they are polar opposites. In Goa, the idea is to hang
loose, celebrate, drink, swim, meet and make friends, check out the
local markets.. Let's say it is pretty close to a Caribbean or Miami
beach vacation. Goa has lonely beaches, but the famous ones are
overrun by tourists and you can find a huge crowd on its beaches any
time. For more information, just go back to your favourite search
engine and search for Goa.
Kerala now.
Kerala's beaches are pristine, less crowded and generally have an
upper class bunch of tourists. The famous spots is Kovalam, but
there are many others. The entire west coast of Kerala has beautiful
beaches, so basically, you can get a beach anywhere in Kerala. The
sand is always white. A beach vacation in Kerala means relaxing. Go
for a swim, no drinking on the beaches, general safety, no
boisterous crowds etc. If you have the money to stay in a beach
resort with one of their private beaches, you have heaven. If having
privacy, silence, and the sound of waves lashing upon the rocks is
your idea of an idea beach vacation. There are beach resorts that
give you the full ayurvedic massage treatment. The Government of
Kerala promotes tourism for the upper crust, and does not like
backpackers. Backpackers are considered culturally harmful, and
drugs and boisteriousness are frowned upon. A beach vacation in
Kerala should be focused on beauty, silence, health, and enjoying
the local culture, food and arts. Search for Kerala in Google, and
read up before you make your mind on where to go for your ideal
beach vacation.
