Usually Aguada Fort is very crowded with tourists, so it's recommended to reach there early, which essentially means 10 am and explore the place. After our visit to Aguada Fort, we drove to the beach which was near Goa Jail. Many of the folks were doing fishing there and we saw hundreds of crabs on the beach. This was an awesome experience and we shall dedicate a separate Photo Journey to those crabs :)Many times, Goans confuse the fort with Aguada fort Taj which comes on the way to the fort and it's one of the most popular properties to stay in Goa. Apart from that many folks visit Vivanta by Taj and beaches around it. It has also become one of the main tourist destination. There are few fort like structures around Vivanta where tourists like to visit to witness high tides of the seaName of Aguada Fort is taken from freshwater spring which used to suppy water to the ships coming there. 'Agua' in actually a portuguese means water, and hence the fort was named 'Aguada' to denote a place where water is accumulated. There was time when fort was protected by more than 200 cannons and a deep dry moat, which one still has to cross to get inside.

This property is owned by Tatas and is part of an 85+ acres complex overlooking the Arabian Sea. It is situated on Sinquerim Beach and looks beautiful from road. Fort Aguada Beach Resort looks awesome with beautiful villas and cottages, with unmatchable views of Arabian sea.We didn't spend much time around Aguada Fort, as the list to do was long and there were many more exciting things in our mind. But it was wroth visiting Aguada Fort for short splan of time... On the back journey we noticed a beautoful beach with lot of ships parked there and planned to visit the same. It was Coco beach and following link shares the exciting experience with fishermen on the Coco Beach.
