Samsara is in Arambol: a peaceful, friendly village with a beautiful unspoiled beach spreading both north and south from the village. It is 32km northwest of Mapusa. It has not been hit hard by development as yet. Many of the people who come here come year after year, renting houses. North of the village, along the beach, is a freshwater lagoon. There is the occasional party in the Arambol area.
Arambol village is quiet and friendly, with just a few hundred locals mostly fishing people. The place is ideally peaceful allowing you to have a close experience of local life and culture. The relaxed environment coupled with peace and tranquility attracts many vacationers from other beaches of Goa.
There are two beaches here.
The main beach is lined with cafes and is good for bathing.
The smaller and less populated beach in the north is more scenic and is a good place to swim. This second beach has white sand and is flanked by steep cliffs on both sides.
