Couples

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 'Secret Beach' and where is it?
The Secret Beach is a hidden cove near Candolim that is only accessible by water or a rugged trail. We paddle to it from Sinquerim, a 20-minute kayak ride. The beach is pristine, often deserted, and perfect for a private picnic. You'll spend 30 minutes there before paddling back. Book on GoaNearby.In.
Is the kayaking route difficult?
Moderate – there is a short stretch of open sea with small waves. However, we only operate in calm conditions. If the sea is choppy, we postpone or shift to a backwater alternative. A safety boat accompanies the group. Beginners are welcome but must be comfortable with minor waves.
What is included in the price?
Included: double or single kayak, life jacket, paddle, dry bag, guide, and a small snack (cookies and juice) at the secret beach. Also included are some basic beach games (frisbee, volleyball). Not included: transport, extra food, or photography. You can add a picnic basket for ₹500 – order via +918180951176.
How do I reach the meeting point?
Meeting point is at Sinquerim Jetty, near the Fort Aguada. Transport is not included. Use pavancab.com via WhatsApp +918180951176. If you drive, there is paid parking (₹100) at the jetty. Please arrive 20 minutes before the start time for briefing and gear fitting.
What happens if the secret beach is occupied by other groups?
The beach is very small and rarely has more than one group at a time. In the unlikely event it's occupied, we will paddle to another nearby cove (equally scenic). We cannot guarantee complete exclusivity, but we avoid peak times. For 100% private booking, you can reserve the entire tour (extra ₹1500) – call us.
