Cavelossim
is a 10 km strip of pristine beach south of Benaulim, with a number of
hotels of varying degrees of luxury. This stretch with Cavelossim Beache has
been patronized by the affluent tourists and can almost be called Goa's up
market resort beach. A short way beyond the village's picturesque church
square, a narrow lane veers left across an open expanse of paddy fields to
the Cavelossim-Assolna ferry crossing near the mouth of the Sal River.These beaches are much cleaner and quieter than most of the famous beaches of Goa. They have a number of beach shacks offering a variety of Goan dishes and seafood at reasonable prices. Several food joints around Cavelossim offer entire packages of good food, drink, and a pleasant service at rather reasonable rates. There are also facilities for Dolphin watching at Betty's Place as well as boat trips for Dolphin watching up the River Sal.
Crammed together on to a narrow spit of dunes between the surf and estuary, the holiday inns and beach resorts combine to create a holiday camp ambience that has as little to do with Goa as their architecture.
