Ashvem,Goa,India

Ashwem Beach is a stretch of sand that lies between the banks of the river Chapora in the south and the river Terekhol in the north. Ashwem Beach in Goa is continuous with the Morjim Beach to the south and the Mandrem Beach to the north.

There are no water sports at Ashwem Beach, unlike other beaches of North Goa. However, visitors can take a lovely morning walk on the 1.5-km long beach, enjoy lunch at a shack on Ashwem Beach, and after resting in the afternoon, enjoy sunset views and explore the area in the evening.

This beach has a number of beach shacks. It also does have some good accommodation in the form of little resorts. But the most ideal accommodation here is the beach huts made of palm leaves.

Ashwem beach is also the nesting place for the Olive Ridley Turtles which is a rare species. The nesting season is between September to February which also happens to be the peak tourist season of Goa.
