Service Description

The Divar Island, formerly known as Dveepvattika, is tucked away between Old Goa and Ribandar and is a reminder of Goa's illustrious past and timeless elegance. The only large island in Goa that is still linked by road is Divar, which provides a genuinely unique and tranquil experience. With a rich history, Divar Island was formerly the home of famous temples such as the Saptakoteshwar Temple, which honors the Kadamba dynasty's family god. Being among the first locations to be conquered by the Portuguese, the island saw the horrors of the Inquisition and left behind a wealth of untold stories. You will travel back in time during our Divar Island Exploration as we lead you through its historical sites, which include the eerily stunning remnants of old temples. Its fascinating history is complemented by beautiful scenery and a thriving culture that continues to this day. Highlights of the experience include: ▪ Historical Exploration: Unearth the stories of Divar through its ancient ruins and cultural relics. ▪ Fun Boat Ride: Bask in the beauty of a serene sunset as you glide along the river. ▪ Feni Tasting at a Local Tavern: Immerse yourself in Goan culture by savoring this iconic local spirit.
