Candolim
Beach
"
The lonely seashore at Candolim Beach invites all, who yearn for solitude
and tranquility. Here, I could feel thoroughly relaxed and completely
in control. The warm breeze caressed me with its salty tang everywhere
at Candolim Beach. The silver hued sand caressed my feet when I took a
stroll on the secluded beach. The feeling was amazingly refreshing and
divine. The extraordinary sight of soft sand and sapphire waters certainly
made Candolim Beach a perfect dream holiday, which I ever had in my life.
