Chapora River

The view of the river- sea confluence from the Chapora fort is breath-taking and can be felt only if one gazes from the top of the fort. A perfect vantage point to view the sun-set.

One of the prime interests for tourists is the House Boat Cruise on the Chapora river and can be arranged from various pick-up points like Panaji, Baga, Calangute, or Candolim to reach you to Siolim. Once you reach the jetty, a boat will ferry you to the Houseboat from where you can reach the sunset point. Actually, the houseboat adventure begins from this point and later you can enjoy a swim in the Morjim beach.

The best part is as the sun sets you can get a great glimpse of the panoramic view of the sky and water. The confluence and the surrounding greenery is a delight for bird watchers. Fishing is also a popular day activity. If lucky you can also spot dolphins during a day cruise.

During night in-house Goan and Indian dinner will be served as you set sail. The best part is you can enjoy listening to the sound of the waves that splash against the boat. For overnight excursions, the boat anchors at the centre of the backwater for you to continue the party. The cruise is best enjoyed from the upper deck as a clear starry sky on a winter night is a full value for your money. The best time to cruise is between November and March and the adventure experience can be cherished over a lifetime.

Kayaking can also be enjoyed in the Chapora waters for those who love to row amidst the river and also new introductions like Jet Lev Flyer, fly boarding, the adventure gets all the more thrilling.
