Mandrem,Goa,India

The beautiful beach of Mandrem is scenically sandwiched between the twin beaches of Ashwem and Arambol.

Running on the Mandrem beach towards the north will introduce you to Arambol Beach  the backpacker’s beach. Jogging on the Mandrem beach towards the south will introduce you to Ashwem Beach bringing you closer to Olive Ridley Turtles in Goa.

Being a serene beach one can see white-bellied fish eagles that live in the casuarinas trees at the Goa Mandrem beach. Sometimes even the famous Olive Ridley marine turtles have their hatching nests over here if the Morjim beach is overcrowded.

The water here is clear and the beach is practically isolated to enjoy the surrounding in peace and quiet.
