North Goa is good for you if you like to be around large crowds and a convivial atmosphere all the time. On the other hand, if you prefer some alone time or a quiet walk on the beach or on the streets, south Goa is the place to be.

If you are looking for beaches in North Goa or South Goa, you will find both South Goa and North Goa are quite pleasant for planning holidays and enjoyable for tropical weather. However, travelling to South Goa is better because the weather is less humid than in North Goa
