Vasco De Gama Tourism

About Vasco De Gama

Located at a distance of around 30 kilometers from Panaji (the capital city of Goa) in South Goa, Vasco Da Gama is mainly a busy commercial hub and an important trade center that overlooks the Zuari River. It was one of the busiest ports on the west coast of the Indian sub continent when the Portuguese acquired it in 1543. Today, Vasco De Gama is a busy shipping center where huge container vessels come to deposit raw materials and other items. But still, it is also a popular tourist town with a different aspect of Goa. Vasco Da Gama has quite good hotels with decent lodging and boarding facility.
Tourists travel to Vasco da Gama to explore the famous Bogmalo beach, the ports, Naval Aviation Center, etc.
