Climate
The climate is
fabulous and offers everything that a tourist would adore to enjoy for
a vacation. Gentle winds, inviting water, soft sand, majestic forts in
daunting magnificence and silent villages cuddling cheek by jowl to be
aroused by some feelings of modernity presents a distinct atmosphere
for the busy buffs. You get fastidious seafood and the modern
restaurants offer food to satisfy all the delights of life. All these
charisma is combined with the hospitality making Daman a pleasant place
for tourists.
Feel
the sands and waves
Daman has beaches
with gurgling waves washing your feet giving you a cool feeling. Devika
beach is ideal to tan your body but insecure for swimming due to rocky
formations under the water. But the restaurants, hotels and bars
promise a good evening. However, the amusement park is a good choice
for children to enjoy the Toy train and Merry go round and also to eat
delicacies at the adjacent restaurant and ice-cream parlor. The Jampore
beach is safe and there are sunshades to make ideal picnic spots. A
horse ride also makes an appropriate end.
A
Heritage roll
Daman’s churches are
the illustrations of Portuguese architecture and are the significant
heritages. Similarly, the forts such as Moti Daman Fort, Nani Daman
fort, the Diu Fort, the churches and the ancient lighthouse enhance the
well preserved heritage. A temple devoted to Lord Shiva called as
Gangeshwar Temple comprises of five lingas and is situated amidst the
rocks. This is a great attraction to the tourists.
Lively
Nights
Though these areas
have no unique cuisine, yet wining and dining is a popular pleasure.
The seafood items offer real contentment. A little bar offers your
favorite wine at cheaper prices. After sunset, you can refresh yourself
and make your nights lively with good food and wine.
