Visit At Tambdi Surla Temple

Don’t forget to visit this old ancient charm. It is a temple of Lord Shiva The temple is located at the foothills of Anmoda ghat which is on the border of Goa and Karnataka. Both the Temple and the waterfall come in the same vicinity which is in complete harmony with nature.

Walk to a Spice Plantation

One more attraction for the visit of the waterfall is the spice plantation nearby. You can have a walk-in this area and also get to understand many varieties of spices. On this site, you will also give your taste buds a treat with Govan delicacies. The smell of freshly crushed pepper and other spices will tickle your nose and tongue. A small elephant ride is also there to make your visit more memorable.

Best Time To Visit

To visit this milky symphony of water the best time is from July to October or during the monsoon when the beauty is at its peak due to rainy surroundings. 

Also after the monsoon up to December, one can visit. Obviously, nature’s aura in monsoon and in winters is completely different. But the beauty of the waterfall is intact till December.

The Mandovi river of Goa, which is the main river, gets its way through western ghats and gets crashed at the Goa and Karnataka border hence the Dudhsagar waterfall forms. While planning to visit goa don’t forget to cover this mighty waterfall. Experience the goal beyond the beaches and parties.
