With a few shacks dotted across the beachfront, this South Goa beach comes to life after October (peak season). It is recommended for those who like a bit of peace with the side order of pina coladas. Go jet skiing or parasailing, but don't go here expecting a crazy influx of water sports or a crowd that's become synonymous with the likes of Colva. This beach in South Goa has become a sweet spot between civilisation and rustic goodness. During monsoons, Utorda beach becomes dramatic with dark clouds looming and rain lashing down.
How To Reach: It is just 15–20 minutes by car from Margao or 30 minutes from Dabolim Airport — easily accessible via road.
Where To Stay: The Kenilworth Resort, Planet Hollywood, or the more serene Jasminn South Goa.
Where To Eat: Dine at Zeebop by the Sea for fresh seafood, or grab snacks and cocktails at nearby beach shacks like Pedro's.
