Morjim, known as "Little Russia" for its expat community, is a quieter, bohemian alternative to the busy beaches farther south. Olive Ridley turtles nest on its shore, and the Chapora River meets the Arabian Sea here. A pre-arranged transfer takes you from the airport or your previous hotel straight to your beach bungalow, with no need to navigate narrow coastal roads or haggle with drivers on arrival.

Goa has two airports: Mopa (GOX) in North Goa and Dabolim (GOI) near Vasco da Gama.[1] Morjim lies in North Goa, so the drive from Mopa is much shorter than from Dabolim. Name the right airport when you book your transfer.
