The Southern Deck, The Beach Bar & Bistro around Benaulim beach of South Goa in India

In currently ongoing series about recent Goa trip, today I bring you about the place where we had our first part outside the resort. And by now you know that all this is organised by my office. So it was planned at The Southern Deck on Benaulim Beach, which is 40 mins drive from Panjim. When I started compiling a blogpost about this place, I realised that I didn't click enough to share in this post but it also means that party went well that I didn't have time to take out my phone and click some photographs of the place.

Whole space at The Southern Deck was for #Sumologic that evening and that gives a big comfort. Bar was open with good variety for drinks, including some interesting mocktails. The Southern Deck is a quite a vibrant space with decent food and drinks options. It's on Benaulim beach and has good ambiance. During monsoons many of the portions are covered but if you visit in other seasons, you feel like you are almost on the beach. During monsoons we had to step out to the beach through one dedicated path and at any point of time we could enjoy one thing - either the beach or the The Southern Deck ambiance/music. The middle path was to pick the drink and go to the beach. Because of that I hardly ate anything, but it was a conscious choice :). If we are talking about food, I can't comment on snacks but dinner was tasty. I was amongst the last batch of people who came for dinner after the buffet place was sort of empty, as planned. But the staff and organisers were kind to arrange some stuff for us, and it was good. Above photograph was clicked when I was waiting for the dinner to arrive :).

The Southern Deck is quite spacious and as you take an exit, you see this huge boat places at the gate and beyond that is the famous Benaulim beach. I must mention that DJ at The Southern Deck was pretty good. Now am I a good judge of DJs? No. So how am I saying so? Most of the folks danced for a long time and enjoyed a lot. Now that can also be related to the vibe created by colleagues or may be good drinks in the bar etc.

Above photograph of Benaulim Beach is clicked from The Southern Deck. All photographs shared in this blogpost are clicked with my old iPhone8Plus. Somehow in Goa, I have seen lot of my friends, family and acquaintances recommending different places like The Southern Deck around beaches for food, drinks and vibe etc. Many places I have been are usually over-hyped or may be I am unable to appreciate. The Southern Deck is not something for which I want you to drive and go but if you are around Benaulim beach, it can be a decent place to have your meal. Having said that, I haven't explored Benaulim beach enough to say that there are not other places better that The Southern Deck.
