Yoga Retreat in Goa
Arambol Beach is a traditional fishermen village. It is approximately an hour long drive from Dabolim Airport (GOI) which is located within the administrative region of Pernam in Northern Goa, India. This beach attracts innumerable foreign tourists mostly durinh the winter season from November to March. Arambol owns a distinct bohemian feel that inevitably attracts many alternative tourists as this feel is no more found in other areas such as Calangute. Apart from many other popular tourist locations like Anjuna, Palolem and Vagator, Arambol is considered the most beautiful beach in Goa.
It borders South on Mandrem Beach and North on Keri Beach.
