Wildernest Nature Resort, Goa.

Goa during the monsoon is all about getting wet and enjoying nature, but not at the beach!

The monsoon season is the perfect time to ditch the beach and seek out Goa's wildlife sanctuaries, where you can go trekking and surround yourself with nature. Despite only being a small state, Goa has six wildlife sanctuaries to choose from. There's also the Wildernest Nature Resort, which offers very alluring monsoon discounts.

For fun, don't forget Sao-Joao (the fertility feast of Saint John the Baptist) where men jump into overflowing village wells to retrieve bottles of local feni alcohol. It's a huge celebratory occasion in Goa.
