Goa’s tourism sector is set to receive a major boost as water sports activities will resume from September 15, Tourism Minister Rohan Khaunte announced.
The Minister met with members of the Goa Water Sports Association, assuring them that the government remains committed to protecting the livelihoods of Goans who depend on the industry.
Referring to the current sea conditions, Khaunte said the restart date has been fixed in alignment with safety requirements and weather patterns. The monsoon season, which often brings rough seas, usually leads to the suspension of water sports across the state’s beaches for several months.
The announcement has come as a relief to operators and workers engaged in water sports such as parasailing, jet skiing, banana boat rides, and other adventure activities that attract thousands of tourists each season.
Tourism stakeholders are hopeful that the resumption will help revive visitor interest and provide a timely boost ahead of Goa’s festive and peak tourism season.
