Strawberry Farm, Verlem

 


There's a small strawberry farm at Verlem, Netravali which is maintained by local workers. The strawberry plantation is in the hilly areas of the Netravali Wildlife  Sanctuary . There are sharp turns and slopes and the road is narrow so you have to take care while driving. 


I had visited this place with my uncle and cousins in January 2021. It was an on the spot plan and we were all excited to visit this place as we had never seen a strawberry plantation before. Once we went there we could see rows of strawberry plants all planted along with the workers who were picking up the ripe strawberries. Along side the strawberries, the farm also had various other plants like marigold, chillies and various flowering plants. 


There was a small stall outside that sold strawberries in baskets and we were excited to try them but unfortunately we couldn't eat any cause they were already sold out.

Cabo De Rama

Cabo De Rama is a beautiful beach in Goa which is best suited for picnics and camping with your near and dear ones. Situated at Canacona taluka in Southern Goa, this place is a major attraction for tourists. There is a beautiful Portuguese fort overlooking the beach, which is 2 km away and can be reached via foot.This fort also has a small chapel, which is still visited by devotees.    I visited this place with my friends a few months back. When I reached the place, I did not find a single tourist. One can easily reach this place by either hiring a car or taxi. You can even use bus services that operate from Margao to Cabo De Rama. The road to reach this destination is a little bumpy, so going by bike would be a little risky.
