The Divar Island Exploration
148
The Island of Dveepvattika or Divar as we presently know it, is the only major Island in Goa not connected by road. Flanked by Old Goa and Ribandar, this island was once home to famous temples of Goa including the Temple of Saptkoteshwar, the family deity of the Kadambas. As history would have it, it was one of the first places to be captured by the Portuguese in Goa. It suffered a strong bout of inquisition, and has innumerable stories to share.
On the Divar Island Exploration, we explore the major religious monuments on the island, a temple pond dating back to nearly a thousand years. This island is a surprise to the common man and will leave you mesmerized with its untouched beauty. We are then taken for a lovely boat ride through the mangroves of Goa and we get to jump into the river for an enriching clay bath experience.

Goa is blessed with water all around. The backwaters, rivers, ponds and the mighty ocean. Not only are they beautiful to the eye but also an integral part of the Goan lifestyle. Fish are known as the fruits of the sea and exploring the variety of seafood found in Goa is a gastronomical experience by itself.
We have seen fish on our plate several times but now it is time to experience what goes behind getting a good catch. This experience will give you an opportunity to try your hand at fishing with the help of a passionate local who has several years of experience under his belt. We move along different spots along the back waters and sluice gates trying our hand at getting a good catch. We learn the basics of how to use the fishing rod and the significance of fishing among the locals. Filling up with some warm snacks at a traditional Goan home completes the whole experience.
What happens to the Fish you catch? We shall know on the trail when you do.
