Posted by Nitin Petkar on April 23, 2025

 

Goa, known for its beaches and vibrant nightlife, also offers a quieter side for nature lovers through its Crocodile Watching and Bird Watching trip. This eco-friendly adventure typically begins with a serene backwater boat cruise along the Cumbarjua Canal, a mangrove-lined stretch between Old Goa and Divar Island. As the boat glides through the tranquil waters, keep an eye out for the Indian Mugger crocodiles basking along the muddy banks — a thrilling sight in their natural habitat.

 

The area is also a haven for birdwatchers. With binoculars in hand, you can spot a variety of species including kingfishers, herons, egrets, brahminy kites, and cormorants. Early mornings are the best time for this tour as the wildlife is most active then. Knowledgeable guides provide fascinating insights into the local ecosystem, flora, and fauna.

Perfect for families, photographers, and wildlife enthusiasts, this tour offers a unique glimpse into Goa’s rich biodiversity, away from the usual tourist trail.
