Aguada Rocky Beach

Aguada Rocky Beach is a shore in Bardez that combines sandy areas with large rock formations, creating different sections to explore along the coastline. The landscape sits beside the historic Fort Aguada lighthouse and features varying textures throughout.

Portuguese sailors used this beach in the 17th century as a water source, collecting fresh water from springs within the adjacent fort. This early use shows the beach's strategic importance during the colonial period.

Local fishermen work here using traditional nets cast from small wooden boats, particularly during early morning hours. This daily sight reflects fishing practices that have continued for generations at the shore.

The beach is accessible year-round without entrance fees. You can reach it from Manohar International Airport or Thivim railway station using various transportation options.

Natural rock pools form at low tide along the shore, creating small protected areas where marine creatures can be seen. The water in these pools stays clear enough to observe sea life.
