Goa

What you will see from the Mandovi at night.

The Panaji riverfront, the casino boats, the Atal Setu bridge and the river mouth: what you pass on an evening cruise on the Mandovi.

An evening cruise from Panaji is a short trip with a lot to look at. This is what passes by on either side.

The Panaji riverfront

As the boat pulls away from the Santa Monica Jetty, the old city's riverfront opens up behind you: the promenade, the government buildings and the lights of the hills above Panaji.

The casino boats

Several large casino ships are moored in the river off Panaji. At night they are lit from end to end and are among the brightest things on the water.

Atal Setu

The cable-stayed Atal Setu bridge crosses the Mandovi beside the older bridges. Lit up after dark, it is the sight most guests photograph on an evening cruise.

Towards the sea

Downstream, the river widens towards Miramar on the south bank and Reis Magos on the north, with Fort Aguada at the mouth. On a sunset sailing this is where the light is best.
