Sight Seeing Highlights
The northern beach of Bardez,
known as Vagator
Beach, which resides
just a few kilometers below the Chapora Fort area. The shoreline of
Vagator is highly invigorating and scenic due to the rocky landscape of this
region.
Adil Shah had built Chapora Fort,
when he was the ruler of Bijapur, and what is still remaining of this amazing
Portuguese architecture dates as far back as 1617. Within this magnificently
landscaped area, there is a blend of history to explore, along with an array of
pockets filled with several varied fish species to be delightfully enjoyed.
Not to far below Vagator Beach
and Chapora Fort is the Anjuna
Beach resort area, and this is one
of Bardez's hot spots known for throwing
wonderful parties, and many other extravagant events of fun to be enjoyed. Not
only is the swimming highly pleasurable and safe within the Anjuna Beach
area, but also there is the weekly flea market, the Albuquerque
Mansion and the Mascarenhas Mansion, along with bungee jumping from
an 80-ft tower, and paragliding too for your vacationing pleasures.
