A real Shoestring holiday by the sea in sunny Goa.

One minute from the sea...on the unspoilt Goan coastline - Dunes offers a haven for relaxation, rejuvenation and a welcome return to a slower pace of life.

Tucked away from the busier areas of Goa, this little bit of Goan paradise offers beautiful quiet beaches whilst being only a 20 minute stroll away from the more upbeat vibe of Arambol - famous for its brilliant live music.

The Dunes has an excellent restaurant with a vegetarian salad bar and plenty of fresh fish. In the evenings it offers a variety of entertainment from Indian classical music and dance to a Rajasthan puppet show. There is also laundry and internet facilities available on site.



THE DAILY PROGRAMME
Early morning outdoor meditation and pranyama followed by yoga asanas. Evenings will also be spent doing a more relaxing class. There will be one yoga-free day during the 9 day holiday.

 THINGS TO DO
Visit the bustling colurful market of Anjuna with hundreds of stalls, selling everything from clothes to statues, jewellery to cd's. And the Saturday night market (one of the largest in Asia) with it's live music, good food and high quality/interesting stalls makes for one of Goa's best nights out.

Enjoy evenings out in Goa's fabulous restaurants, dance under the stars to the sounds of  local live music or simply relax on spectacular beaches with fresh coconut milk, watermelons, papaya, pineapples and a good book. 

Hire a scooter to visit temples and far away beaches/villages or a boat to explore Goa's backwaters.
