Cola Beach

 

        



                    Cola Beach, also known as 'Khola' Beach, is another hidden gem of South Goa. Located in the Canacona area, the golden sand beach is peppered with volcanic boulders. The beach does not receive many visitors as it is off the beaten path, hidden by thickly overgrown hills, with a decent stretch of rather rocky terrain to be crossed before arriving at this natural paradise. This makes Cola Beach perfect for trekkers and adventure lovers.

                    Cola Beach is divided into North Cola and South Cola, with a small hill separating the two. It is joined by a river in the middle which is known as the Blue Lagoon or Emerald Lagoon because of its clear green color.

                    The calm water here is perfect for swimming. Cola Beach also offers magical sunsets as the landscape of the beach reflects the sun rays in a unique way.
