Beach Attractions

The Wild Parties

Anjuna is one of those few Indian beaches where partying is a regular feature. A beach with a reputation of kill-joy attitude, Anjuna's big parties during the Christmas-New Year period draw lots of fun lovers. Anjuna always goes wild during the full moon parties. The night life normally centres round the Shore Bar in the middle of the beach. With a pounding sound system playing some funky music at all times, the atmosphere in Anjuna is always alive and kicking. Complementing the festive atmosphere are the Guru Bar and Primrose Cafe.

The Anjuna Eateries

If wild partying at Anjuna is a perennial sight, eating and drinking cannot be far behind. The beach front and village at Anjuna are full of big and small restaurants. Most of them are simply open air, adding another diversity to Anjuna. The specialisations are seafood and western delicacies. Readily available are cold beer and rare Goan wines. Fresh fruits like watermelons, pineapples and coconuts also satisfy the taste buds.

The Anjuna Flea Market

The flea market of Anjuna is very popular among the tourists. A variety of items including fresh fruits, decoratives and clothes are available in the market. A boat service on certain days of the week from Baga beach to Anjuna flea market is also very popular.


The Sunset and Moonlight

The saying goes that Anjuna never sleeps. If tired of shopping and partying, just lie down on the beach in the evening and watch the majestic view of the sun dripping down the sea. And as the moonlight replaces sunlight, take a long walk on the soft silver sands with the moonlight caressing your body all along the way. For those who believe in enjoying life to the hilt, a visit to Anjuna would be worth a lot.
