Parasailing, Banana ride, Jet-ski, Bumper ride are other adrenaline-rushers. Goa gives away a blend of breath-taking and beautiful water adventures.

Know some of the water sports in Goa that we listed down for you all. Enjoy your rides.

1)Water Kayaking     

Kayaking is a watersport that originated in the northern Arctic waters. Although its basic purpose was hunting, it eventually took the form of a sport. A kayak is a small, narrow boat pointed on both sides. Here you sit facing the front and paddle the kayak with double-bladed paddles. It’s more like a refreshing sport when the waters are calm and otherwise a water-splashing sport. Imagine kayaking along the calm waters while the sun rises gradually! Karthik Tours & Travels in Goa offer this beautiful sport in their Adventure Boat Party Trip. Visit their website to know more.

2)Sailing on SUP Board     

If you are familiar with kayaking, then SUP sailing might pique your interests. Stand-up Paddleboarding originates in Africa but only gained its popularity in Hawaii. This is an art of propelling the paddler with the help of paddles. Thus, you will be standing up on the canoe and propelling yourself with the help of the paddles.     

This sounds easy but is much more challenging and adventurous compared to kayaking. So if you are a water lover and adventure seeker then SUP boarding is the first thing you should do in Goa.

3)Snorkeling 

This is more of a relaxed activity as compared to the above two. Snorkeling is just swimming on or inside water with your face down in the water. Your face is covered with a diving mask and snorkel (the breathing tube). Swim fins are also used. This is a very suitable activity for all age groups since does not demand any rigorous efforts or complicated training like scuba diving. One can effortlessly enjoy the underwater life view. A must-do activity with your family and friends.

  

4)Bumper Ride     

Goa trip without a Bumper ride is just incomplete. This bumpy ride that almost wants to throw you off is full of buzz, thrill, and not at all recommended for faint hearts. A speed boat drags a large air-filled rubber tube while you sit in it. As the boat cuts through the water, you need to keep hanging on the tube. So try not to fall off! It is a real sport that piques your adrenaline to your brains. If you are in Goa, don’t miss it. Your friends are going to roll and laugh on the sight of you bumping here and there and so are you.

5)Banana Ride     

This is the ideal ride for your group of friends swaying on the waters with you. It works just like the bumper ride, except for the number of people bumping increase. The air-filled tube is long banana shaped and can accommodate 4-10 people at a time. Imagine you and your family bumping into each other while trying hard not to fall off the tube. A funny cherishing memory for your Goa trip.

6)Parasailing 

The water adventures can’t get grander without parasailing. After seeing the under and on the sea view, it’s time to experience the seascape from the skies. In paragliding, you are attached to a canopy and then suspended high up in the air. This canopy is pulled by a speedboat. As the speedboat advances, you cut through the air enjoying and breathing in the majestic view. Nothing else can be as soothing as parasailing. You can hear the air, watch the water flowing under you, and beaches flooding with people. You could miss on anything else but not paragliding.

Apart from these water sports, there are many others like jet skiing, speed boat riding, paddle boat riding, fishing, dolphin spotting, crocodile spotting, sightseeing, hot air balloon rides, and much more offered by Karthik Tours & Travels in Goa.
