Keri Beach | QUERIM BEACH IN NORTH GOA

Keri Beach

Also known as Keri Beach or Kerim Beach, it is the northern-most beach of Goa and located close to Tiracol fort.

It has an Old Portuguese Fort and a 17th century church overlooking a peaceful unexplored beach with calm shore.

The fort, now converted to a hotel, can be reached by a ferry which plies every half an hour.

A picturesque scene not to be missed are the fishing boats which line up on the beach at 6pm everyday to go out in the sea and come back the next morning at 5am.
The beach has paragliding and other water sports.

However it is not safe for swimming especially near the Tiracol estuary (formed by the Tiracol river meeting the Arabian Sea).

Kerim is located 58 km north of Panaji and can be reached from the Arambol Beach
Several signs marked ‘beach’ leads you in the right direction and after about 500 meters, youll see the clear ferocious waters of the pre-monsoon Arabian Sea – you can dive straight into the water!

Querim is well connected by road from anywhere in Goa.

You can also take the local bus, starting from Mapusa or Panaji.
