Calangute Beach, located 16 Kms from Panaji –the capital of Goa, is the most popular holiday resort in Goa and known as ‘The Queen of Beaches’. Excellent accommodation facilities are available at the tourist resort and cottages. Calangute lie on the shores of the Arabian Sea of North Goa in India. It is encircled by Arpora-Nagoa, Saligao and Candolim, in the Bardez taluka. Calangute was not the original name of the beach, but a Portuguese distortion of the originally Goan name of "Koli Gutti", which means the land of the fishermen. Some people refer to it as Kolyianguttti, Kalangutti (village of art) Kolngutt, Kongott or Konvallo-ghott (strong pit of the coconut tree) because of the abundance of coconut trees found here.

Club Cabana at Arpora is a huge club ideally located on a hilltop overlooking one of the most exciting beaches of Goa and India. Spread over different floors and an outdoor area that includes a pool & barbecue it can accommodate 1200 people! Private parties are also organized. The theme nites here with costumes and decor are particularly popular. So for a busy beach of Goa, and a Goa holiday experience in the company of Sun- worshippers United, Calangute is the place to be. Seemingly not all that long ago this Beach was the beach all self-respecting hippies headed for, especially around Christmas when psychedelic hell broke loose.
