A drive further north of Goa, and one ends up in this extremely calm and beautiful place called Tarkarli in the Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra. It\'s only about 130 odd kilometers from Calangute, but took us about 4 hours to reach (including lunch). The route is nice in most parts, but the bad parts are terribly bad. the biggest attraction, or why we even set out to this place was that one can snorkel here. So enthusiastic and short on time as we were, we headed straight to the jetty near the Sindhudurg fort. the Guy charged us 300 rupees a head for snorkeling and a stop over at the fort, which lies in the middle of the sea waters. Another place to visit is the beautiful Chivla beach. the views from the Sindhudurg are breathtaking with the Arabian sea lashing against the walls of the Fort. Snorkeling was an unbelievable sort of experience, where all f us on the boat were left spellbound, gasping for more!! the view of the fish in plenty, the corals and the patience with which the guys there carried it all out was very good. the waters in thsi place were so blue, that i have to say that i have never seena sea more blue!!
