About Goa
Goa is a small state on India's west coast, known for its beaches, Portuguese colonial heritage, whitewashed churches and relaxed pace of life. It is one of India's most popular holiday destinations for both domestic and international visitors, with the busiest season in the cooler, drier months after the monsoon.
Goa uses India Standard Time, UTC+5:30, like the rest of India, and the clocks never change as there is no daylight saving. The half-hour offset means it is five and a half hours ahead of London in winter and four and a half ahead during British Summer Time, which is useful to know when booking flights or calling home.
