South Goa has long been the preferred escape for families and travellers seeking peaceful surroundings, lush greenery, and quiet white-sand beaches. Unlike the colourful nightlife and bustling scenes of North Goa, the southern side offers something different—slow days, cozy moments, and what locals lovingly call the Susegad way of life.
In recent years, the rise of vacation rentals has led to increased footfall in popular coastal towns like Colva and Benaulim. Yet, the villages further south continue to remain relatively untouched, preserving their charm and serenity. Among these, Varca stands out as a perfect blend of tranquility, beauty, and accessibility.
What makes Varca stand out?
Perfect Location
Situated just south of Benaulim and comfortably close to South Goa’s prime hotspots, Varca strikes the ideal balance between peace and convenience.
