GOA SPRINGS

The springs are best to visit in monsoon's. Calangute spring, Pompurba spring  and Pernem spring in the north of Goa are worth visiting during  the  rains. The  Keserval Spring in Verna is situated in South Goa, it has its own charm. The road to the spring goes winding down the hill with a tiny steps leading all the way down to the gushing waterfall.
The Keserval spring has a bar and restaurant and has a resort just on the NH 17 highway. The Keserval spring  is just 7 km away from the airport. The Velsao beach too is within  20 minutes drive .  Its a win-win situation visiting this place as the beach, spring and  decent eat joints serving Goan and continental food are open even during monsoon.
The Pernem spring in the North of Goa is situated in the  village with a old temple in the surrounding. Those found of angling (fishing) get some good bait as the khareband river is a good bet to fish in Pernem.
The Tiracol Fort is along the Pernem route so the attraction gets even better enroute to Tiracol fort the Keri beach with the tiny shacks  serving Goan snacks are pitched bang on the jetty area. To reach Tiracol the ferry has to be used, so the journey has its own charm as the ferry takes you through the choppy waters to the ancient Portugal fort at Keri.
There are restaurants and "Rooms to Let" at the foothill of the fort and for those looking to spend the night in the fort there are AC rooms operated by the Tourism Department. Bookings has to be done in advance to avoid dissapointments. Bookings are done in Tourism Department office at Panjim for any place in Goa run by the Tourism Department.
Pompurba spring is just 15 km drive from Panjim but worth the drive in monsoons.
Enjoy!
