Go Goa XIII - Caranzalem beach, Just past Sunset

River Mandovi flows through the capital city of Goa -Panjim or Panaji and merges into the Arabian sea near Miramar beach. The U shaped land here extends from Aquada Fort area on northern tip to the Raj Bhavan, Dona Paula beach at the southern tip and is perfect place to witness the placid Mandovi joining the calm Arabian seas at the base. A few yards south from Miramar beach is Caranzalem beach area visited largely by the locals living in the area, like myself. Snippets of this peaceful beach for you:


Just past the sunset, all the sea birds have already left for nests, skies are clear and the beach is serene. Few ships form the background of the seas and the tip of landmass on either side just visible.




Zoom in and one can see the never ending waves of water gushing to the shores.


And the retreating waves creating patterns on the sands that tell their own short stories in reflections.


As it gets darker, the waves too rise higher and reach out further into the beaches, throwing out the dead fish and other perished marine lives which will be an awesome breakfast for the early birds.


The ships with several lights on board make an impressive sight in the darker seas


The light house on the Aquada Fort hills emitting the circular beams gets brighter for the eyes. Few more hours to another bright morning and a new day.
