How to get to Anjuna
You can use public buses to reach Anjuna beach. They are quite frequent and cheap. Just ask locals and they will help you find the right bus. If you prefer private transfer, there are taxis available. The trip might cost around 15-40€. Depends where you start your journey. Another way which gives you more freedom is renting a bike. That’s what we did. Read more about renting bikes in Goa here (coming soon).

Our Anjuna beach review
Anjuna is one of the calmer and more relaxed places in Goa. It has a good laid back hippie vibe. The beach is lined up with multiple beach shacks, restaurant and a few shops. You can find many hippie shops along the main street. If you are looking for a good party, visit Hill Top for one of the best psy trance parties in whole Goa!
The beach itself is not too long and narrow. You can find multiple water activities here. There are some rocks in the water though. Better be careful where you swim. Like every other Goan beaches, don’t expect to find crystal clear waters here.
We only came to Anjuna for a day. The town is not too big and there’s not much to do. It has a good atmosphere, but we felt better at Arambol beach (read more).
