During my visit to Goa last month I came across this beach. I have no doubts in my mind to declare that Miramar is probably the worst beach in Goa. The main reason for this is that it's extremely dirty. Earlier I visited Goa's Baga beach, and it turned out to be quite dirty. However, if a comparison can be drawn between these two beaches, then Baga will be nowhere near Miramar!
Once you step into this beach you will immediately notice that it's filled with plastic bags, empty food packets, leftover foods, wrappers, empty bottles, etc. This obviously made walking freely on the beach with a clear mind a very difficult task indeed. In fact, the sea water on the beach appeared unclean as well. Therefore, we were forced to drop our plans of stepping into the sea.
Talking about safety, I couldn't spot any of the lifeguards, and hence, a big question mark remains on that as well. We also came to know that it's also not safe for the purpose of swimming because of its strong undercurrent.
Placed close to Panaji, Miramar Beach scores good as far as the accessibility factor is concerned. I came across numerous hotels and local sightseeing opportunities as well. However, having said that, if you can't enjoy the sea, sand and beach, then all other good factors become completely useless!
