Paddies behind Ronil Beach Hotel which proved to
be a birding heaven.
Then on our third visit (December 2002)
we stayed at the CSM (Colonia Santa Maria)
CSM pool
Which was also very good and just up
the road from the Ronil.
If your looking for something different
in your birding then you should really consider Goa. We have now
had three thoroughly enjoyable holidays to Goa and visited many
sites. All the above are easily reached by taxi plus we would
recommend you visit Maem Lake and Bondla forest sanctuary. Both
these sites are a must in any birding trip to Goa. All hotels
have their own taxi rank outside and you can strike a deal with
one of the many drivers.
Good Birding!
For our second holiday
to Goa we contacted a local company called Back Woods. They have
a camp near Tambdi Surla and organise birdwatching trips of two
nights duration. All I can say is they are FANTASTIC the birding
was incredible the camp wonderful and your hosts the best you
could wish to meet.
To guarantee a place on one of their trips you really need to
contact them before going on holiday as they get booked up quite
quickly. You can contact them on Telephone +91-9822-139859 / 144939 / 387434
