Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary

Tucked away in the northeastern part of Goa, nestled in the foothills of the Western Ghats, lies the enchanting Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary. This petite yet vibrant oasis, spanning just 8 square kilometers, is a treasure trove of biodiversity and a haven for nature enthusiasts. As you step into this sanctuary, the lush canopy of moist deciduous forests and evergreen vegetation envelops you, while the soft rustle of leaves and the chirping of birds like the Common Grey Hornbills and Ruby Throated Yellow Bulbuls create a symphony of sounds. Here, you can embark on a deer safari, stroll through a picturesque botanical garden, and visit the only zoo in Goa, where panthers, leopards, and Malabar giant squirrels await. It's a place where the boundaries between wildlife and human worlds blur, offering an intimate and unforgettable experience.
