The Monsoon has always been a long awaited season after the scorching heat of summer, especially when it is to be spent on the golden sands of a beach with your loved ones, watching seagulls soaring high above you. Goa, the most popular beach destination of the country, turns into a tourists’ delight during monsoon. The monsoon rain brings refreshment and romance, and with the flourishing nature, Goa takes on a more traditional flavour.
