GOA MAJORDA BEACH
WHY GOA MAJORDA BEACH
Why choose to go to Goa Majorda beach?
If you want perfect silence responding to the humming of the sea, where
you can sit engrossed in a book and look up to catch the picturesque scene
of the sea dressed in golden orange frills sprayed by the rays of the
setting sun before sinking into oblivion, then Goa Majorda beach is the
place to be.
Why Goa Majorda beach is so special?
Goa Majorda beach is very famous for delicious breads. Majorda beach in
Goa has a very interesting history behind it. Majorda is the village where
the Jesuits, fond as they were of the good things of life, discovered
the best Goan toddy (sap from the coconut palm), which they used to leaven
the bread. Naturally, then, Majorda in Goa is the place where the Goans
were first trained in the delicate art of baking European breads.
The Majordans are still Goa's best bakers. The delights of the beach,
however, were discovered much earlier, in the mythic times when the gods
above went through a lot of turmoil. There is a Goan version of Ramayana
and therein Lord Rama was kidnapped as a child and brought up at Majorda.
Later, in pursuit of Sita, he camped at Cabo de Rama-a headland further
south-where the stretch of developed beaches ends.
