Fly into Mandovi river in Goa

January 4 (TravelAndy): Goa is set to start sea plane and helicopter services for tourists from January 6, said reports.

During the first phase, tourists will be able to board the sea planes from Dabolim airport and will be directly flown into Mandovi and Chapora river.

Goa tourism will also connect Dabolim airport to various helipads including Aguada, Old Goa and Canacona. Private helicopter services for tourists are scheduled to begin from January 15.

“While the sea planes and helicopters will be flying across the state from the Vasco-based Dabolim airport, plans are afoot to start amphibious vehicle services for tourists which will take them from cities to inland water routes,” Goa tourism minister Dilip Parulekar said.
