Keri Beach

Keri beach, also known as Querim Beach, is a sunny haven of sand, sea and serenity in Goa. The secluded beach attracts fewer visitors, and therefore fewer vendors, than most Goa beaches.

The beach comprises a long stretch of sand with a few rocky outcrops, rows of trees and a river inlet. Arrive at sunrise to take photos of the shoreline on the almost deserted beach. It is great to walk along the 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) of peaceful shoreline and get the feel of pleasure environment around you.

If you can, then visit the Ajoba Temple along the beach. It is so ancient that its inception date has been lost over time.  

In nearby Querim village is the Terekhol River Crossing, a ferry service which can take you from the Sindhudurg District to North Goa. Just across the river is the 17th-century Terekhol Fort, which has been converted into a hotel. From its rooms you can enjoy the magnificent views of the Arabian Sea.

Querim Beach lies in the northwest of the Goa region, just north of Arambol Beach. It is 1.7 kilometers (1 mile) from the Maharashtra Border.
