If the urge to escape to the ends of the earth strikes you, visit Fort Tiracol. Once an armed fortress that belonged to the Portuguese, Fort Tiracol is now content to spend the rest of its days on a cliff enjoying the kaleidoscopic view of the Arabian Sea and the spectacular estuary of the Tiracol River.

It exists in its own space and time on the northernmost tip of Goa.

Swap the delights of a casino for a catnap on a secluded beach. Trade your dancing shoes for a chance to feel the sand in your feet. Befriend the ocean

Take the fort's private boats and go coast cruising or dolphin sighting.

Those who decide to simply unwind will find their days are just packed with sun worship, great food and wine.
