Cola beach, also known as 'Khola' beach, is one of the hidden gems of South Goa. Located in the Canacona area, the golden sand beach is peppered with volcanic boulders.

This makes Cola Beach perfect for sunbathers. Cola Beach is divided into North Cola and South Cola with a small hill separating the two. It is joined by a river in the middle which is known as the Blue Lagoon or Emerald Lagoon because of its clear green colour. The calm water here is perfect for swimming. Cola Beach also offers magical sunsets as the landscape of the beach reflects the sunrays in a unique way.
