The once peaceful Sinquerim Beach off Fort Aguada, Goa, as viewed from the outer ramparts of the fort which extend partly into the Arabian Sea. Today (13 November 2015) this beach is heavily encroached by people catering to tourists visiting the place, by providing facilities for para-gliding, water scooter rides and speed-boat rides &c. Fort Aguada was constructed in 1613 to guard against the Dutch and the Marathas. It was a reference point for the vessels coming from Europe at that time. This old Portuguese fort stands on the beach south of Candolim, where the Mandovi River blends with the Arabian Sea. Decades ago in the late 1970 and up to late 1980s this beach was less crowded and was totally devoid of shops, shacks, and other encroachments.
