Goa Family Holiday Packages: what to know first
Goa works for families if you choose the right stretch of coast. North Goa's beach belt is busy and loud; South Goa is calmer and closer to what most families want.
The best plan avoids the party strip and uses a resort with a pool and a beach within walking distance.
Why families choose Goa
- Beaches for children and relaxed evenings
- Heritage churches and a spice plantation visit
- Easy food for fussy eaters
- Flights and trains from many cities
