Exactly

When we went a couple of years ago the shacks weren't up, however in Candolim we used Sunny Side Up and Calamari, both on the beach, they are sort of in between a shack and a restaurant. Both places, serve lovely food and are great places to sit looking out to sea watching the world go by.
Hope everyone has a fantastic time, we are going on 22nd November and really looking forward to it

To all of you going in the next couple of weeks have a great time,don`t want to wish your holidays away,but can`t wait to start reading your trip reports, good and not so good points
Bon Voyage
