There was always the sea in Goa, and of course the scimitar
shaped beaches, among the most secluded and beautiful in the
world. But it was the Portuguese who arrived in Goa at the
beginning of the 11th century and remained here for four and
a half centuries, who gave Goa its essential flavor. Goa is
a bit like paradise. Here the constant music of the sea and
of the fun Loving Goans is the rhythm to which time abides.
Golden Goa, calm and quiet, is erased from its leisurely slumber
only once every year when the drum beats echo enthusiastically
to the arrival of the lent carnival in February. On that occasion,
for three days and nights there is fun, fiesta and feasting
and Goa does not sleep, for the carnival is a throng with
excitement, music, pagentry processions and dancing.
