    Popular beaches in Goa to set up 'No Selfie' zones

    In the wake of several incidents of drowning while clicking selfies at the beaches in Goa, the state-appointed lifeguard agency has identified 24 "No Selfie" points along the coast. The agency has already put-up red flags on all the beaches marking them as "No-swim" zones to prevent cases of drowning. Conditions are not favorable for swimming or water-based recreational activities during the monsoon season.

    These points will have 'No Selfie' signages

    Areas like Baga River, Dona Paula Jetty, Sinquerim Fort, Anjuna, Vagator, Morjim, Ashwem, Arambol, Kerim, area between Bambolim and Siridao in North Goa have been identified as "No Selfie" zones, an official said. In South Goa, places including Agonda, Bogmalo, Hollant, Baina, Japanese Garden, Betul, Canaguinim, Palolem, Khola, Cabo De Rama, Polem, Galgibagh, Talpona, and Rajbagh will be "No Selfie" zones, he added.

    No swimming in Goa during the monsoon season

    The agency has issued an advisory cautioning tourists and visitors not to venture into the sea during the monsoon season (between June 1 and September 30) as the sea and wind conditions are not favorable for swimming or water-based recreational activities. The lifeguards are closely monitoring the weather conditions and are on duty throughout the monsoon period from 7.30 am till 6 pm daily.
