The place to be, especially in the morning, when you are in Benaulim. Beautiful, peaceful and a fab place for the morning walks/jogs. Did Benaulim-varca-benaulim-colva and back each day, and the whole coastline is pristine. The fishing is on, and early morning and evenings, you get to see the fishermen at work. There's an abundance of dogs and you need to be careful, lest you step on something not so good😊. That is in my sense, the only major negative with the whole stretch.

Clean n Pristine beach with less crowd. Beach had all the water activities. There are sufficient beach shacks to allow one to spend considerable time here in the evening and watch sunset.

Nice flat sandy beach giving miles of promenades. I was here in February and the sea was always calm and the waves small. There are roaming lifeguards and flagged areas with a permanent presence.
Wonderful place that I hope to get back to asap.

The benaulim beach is very clean and a very long stretch of pristine beach. There is a lot of activities like jetski, parasailing, ringo etc, the only issue is that the price is very high as compared to North Goa. But the beach is excellent and clean shacks all along. it was the perfect beach for kids and adult.

One of the best South Goan beaches .. it was super clean and serene even in the peack december season ! Now we know where to go in Goa, during the peak season !
another highlight is that the fishermen bringing in their boats in the morning and evening with fresh catch ! If you are staying at an airbnb then you could buy some fishes and fry it with minimum spices.. you hardly need anything if the fishes are so fresh !

Very clean beach with white sand...not very crowded during morning, but as dusk falls the shacks get crowded.
The morning walk from Benaulim beach till Trinity beach was very serene. Early morning sight of the fishermen pulling their large nets from sea and sorting their day's catch was a great experience.
This is a must visit place in South Goa!

Beautiful clean beach with magnificent sunset views! You can go for a lovely walk or run on the beach and then chill out at the Southern Deck with beer and snacks! The best thing is that the place was not overcrowded and there’s a sense of peaceful serenity throughout!

We arrived in Benaulim in March, pre lockdown and are still here in July 2020.
In March, several beach shacks were open, we were pleasantly surprised by the free beachbeds and towels, and the excellent food and drink services offered by polite staff in the shacks.

The beach itself was clean, gently shelving and the water was warm and clean.

The only negative side still is, and was, the stray dogs. Far too many. Dog poo on the beach. Dogs fighting. Dogs begging for food at every shack. Once the season ends end of May, the shacks close and the dogs roam.

The monsoon weather in June brings in an annual wash of oil, a result of tankers dumping the waste at sea and the tide pushing it up onto the beach.

The high tides wash away the gentle sandy slopes and built up shack "patio" areas making it look so different during monsoon season. Debris is washed up regularly, washed away on the next tide, yet to see the beach being cleaned.

This section of the beach has a large number of shacks, some watersports and local fishermen. As usual the beach is huge, sandy, gently shelving with a large tidal range.

It is livelier than Sernabatim Beach (15 minute walk away) but not as boisterous as Colva Beach (35 minute walk), at least when we there in early March. There are probably enough shacks to last at least a fortnight were you to visit a different one eacy time.

There are always lifeguards on patrol as the currents can get quite strong. In fact there is a lifeguard station there and we saw some recruits being trained (think Baywatch).

As mentioned the local fishermen use this beach a lot and there are several fishing boats around. It's interesting watching them beach their boats and sell their catch directly on the beach.

I was very disappointed with the beach.
after I read the best reviews I was excited to get there. The beach is not good for travelers who like to spend their time in peace and quiet. It’s occupied by the holiday makers was full of holiday makers who lie down on the sun loungers.
