Night Safari

Trekking through these jungles can be quite fascinating. The best part about it, unlike other jungle treks, there is a distinctive destination waiting for us. In the middle of this jungle is a beautiful waterfall. Since this is a part of the resort, no one else has access to it. How amazing is it to have your own private waterfall?
Small Scale Fish Auction
Do you remember your class teacher telling you not to behave like a fish market? We are firm believers that they were referring to the fish auction. This is an extremely interesting activity. The fisherwomen of the village gather and decide the rates at which the fish will be sold to the buyer. The atmosphere is absolutely vibrant and is pulsating with their energy. Once you reach you must try and get an idea of how this chaotic activity takes place. This is also reflective of how the economy of this region takes place.

Stargazing
In its very nature, stargazing is one of the most pleasant activities even in a crowded city. Now imagine doing this in a place with zero pollution. There isn’t a single day when you cannot see constellations in the clear skies. The Konkan skies speak to us in a language of their own that’s abundant in colour and sparkles and we cannot begin to express how humbling this experience is. It helps you appreciate this world in all its magnitude.
Sunset on the beach
If the typical smell of the sea is as intoxicating for you as it is for us, this activity is for you. The sunset views on the beach are made up of numerous magical moments. Feast your eyes and ears on the variety of hues and sounds. Breathe in nature at its finest.
Go ahead and play kabaddi with the sea. We know it will make you happy!
