Introduction to Galgibag
Tucked away in the deep south of Goa, along the serene banks of the Galgibag River, lies the enchanting Galgibaga Beach, affectionately known as Turtle Beach. This hidden gem, nestled in the Canacona Taluka, is a tranquil oasis that whispers secrets of a bygone era. The golden brown sands, fringed with swaying coconut palms and other lush trees, invite you to a world of unspoiled beauty. Here, the Olive Ridley turtles find a protected haven to lay their precious eggs, a testament to nature's delicate balance. As the sun dips into the Arabian Sea, the sky transforms into a kaleidoscope of pink, orange, and purple hues, creating a sunset that is nothing short of magical. With its isolated charm and the gentle lapping of the river against the shore, Galgibaga Beach is a haven for those seeking solace in the untouched beauty of Goa.

If you're a thrill-seeker like me, the Terekhol River area is a hidden gem waiting to be explored. The trek to the Terekhol Fort is exhilarating, and the panoramic views from the top are breathtaking. Crossing the river by ferry and discovering the secluded beaches like Querim Beach was an adventure I won't forget. This place is full of secret spots just waiting to be uncovered.
Amazing Service
The Terekhol River and its historic fort are a treasure trove of cultural and historical significance. Staying at the Fort Terekhol Heritage hotel was like stepping back in time. The chapel, the barracks, and the memorial dedicated to freedom fighters all speak to a rich history that is beautifully preserved. The views of the river and the sea are serene, and the local cuisine served with such warmth and hospitality made my visit truly special.
