Often, all we want from a holiday is to just relax, soak in the moment, and sip on our drinks, while watching the soft golden hues turn everything warm.
Goa’s extensive coastline promises moments like these, where in the midst of the soothing ambience and the gentle waves, you can get lost in the scenic beauty as the sun dips below the horizon.
If you are looking for something like this, we’ve got you covered.
BLUE TURTLE
A labour of love of a dynamic team including Chef Rohan D'Souza, Praveena D'Souza, Dean and Hitesh, the Blue Turtle Beach Bar and Restaurant that opened in February 2023 is quite a hangout spot in Morjim, North Goa.
Housed along the quieter stretch of the beach, the space's name is inspired by its unique location, right beside the turtle nesting area, and the deep blue sea and is designed with careful consideration, in harmony with the habitat around, leaving the sand dunes untouched.
Apart from the tasteful décor, the space effortlessly blends a world-inspired menu with laid-back elegance.
With a one-of-a-kind culinary experience and a bar program, the Blue Turtle Beach Bar and Restaurant’s huge scenic space is a favourite for a beach day, lazy lunch, surreal sundowners and smart dinners.
SPECIAL SUNDOWNERS
Bang on the beach, watching the sunset from the property is simply perfect. With an open meadow on one side and a relatively quiet clean beach stretch on the other, this place is a stunner. The charm of sand dunes and natural open surroundings, adds to the serene and relaxing ambience.
While taking in all the beauty, guests can savour signature cocktails from their well-stocked bar, and also check out their extensive menu available all-day, including burgers, small plates of seafood, vegan and meats, not forgetting sheesha.
The classy laidback mood is further heightened by the beats of the DJ, with the music ranging from classics to retro tunes to chill out vibes. Guests can also take a quick dip in the sea to make the experience more special.
TAKE NOTE!
When it comes to pricing, the sundowners at Blue Turtle have no packages, but guests can have their pick of whether they’d like a beachside or restaurant seating or opt for the beach beds.
The best time to arrive for the perfect sundowner experience is by 4.30 pm, but even if you're early, there’s much to do.
Since the beach stretch doesn’t have many rocks, it makes for a favourite amongst surfers. To add to this, there’s a surf lesson right next to the property.
Guests can also call in a masseuse for a foot massage as they laze on the sunbeds or simply take a dip in the water. Blue Turtle opens at noon and also has a shower and changing rooms.
Further, Blue Turtle specialises in hosting events, including parties, weddings and large corporate gatherings. The venue has wheelchair access, is pet-friendly and offers ample parking, which is a rare find in Morjim.
So, whether it’s with your pals or loved ones, gather everyone at this place and let the setting sun add a breathtaking backdrop for a memorable evening in Goa.
