There’s a different kind of hunger that shows up when it rains in Goa.

It’s not just about food. It’s about warmth, comfort, and the simple joy of sitting somewhere dry — but open to the sea — with a hot plate in front of you and the sound of waves and thunder in the background.

At Palms n Sands, we’re one of the few places that stay open when the rains arrive. While most spots close for the off-season, we embrace the monsoon. Because some meals just taste better with a sea breeze and rain on the roof.

If you’re looking for a beach side restaurant Goa tourists and locals trust for monsoon dining, we’re it.

Cravings Change with the Weather. So Does Our Menu.

There’s a reason fried and grilled food hits differently when it’s pouring outside. At Palms n Sands, we’ve built our monsoon menu around that truth.

Start with small bites — warm, quick, and deeply satisfying:

Cheesy Jalapeno Balls: Crunchy, spicy, and addictive

Chicken Nuggets: Crisp outside, juicy inside

Goan Sausage Pao: That iconic smoky flavour, now with a sea view

Spring Rolls (veg, chicken, prawn): Light, crispy, and perfect with drinks

Or dig into flavour-forward seafood starters like the Crabmeat Au Gratin — baked to creamy perfection — or Dynamite Prawns, tossed in a punchy glaze that cuts through the chill.

From Tandoor to Tide: What Monsoon Was Made For

When it’s raining hard and you’re in no rush to leave, the tandoor takes over.

Our Chicken Cafreal Tandoori is a monsoon staple — smoky, green-spiced, and grilled just right. Pair it with Mutton Seekh Kebab or Paneer Tikka, and you’ve got yourself a meal worth lingering over.

For seafood lovers, the Red Snapper Rava Fry and King Prawns Tikka bring the ocean to your plate — hot, fresh, and plated with care. You won’t find better at any beach side restaurant Goa has to offer during monsoon.

The Monsoon Isn’t a Reason to Pause Seafood. It’s a Reason to Enjoy It More.

We’re not like most sea view restaurants in Goa that pause their seafood menus during the rains. We stay stocked, prepped, and ready — safely and daily.

Try:

• Squid Peri Peri: A spicy-sour kick, perfect for the overcast mood
• Butter Garlic Prawns: Comforting, creamy, and soulful
• Fish Fingers or Fish n Chips: Classic, filling, and familiar
• Lobster Bisque: Rich, velvety, and indulgent — just what the rains ordered

Our kitchen offers multiple preparation styles — from Sukka to Masala Rava Fry to Butter Garlic — so you can customize to your mood.

Rainy Days Deserve Sweet Endings

You’re warm, dry, and full. But the rain hasn’t stopped — and neither should you.

 

Stay for dessert. Our Bebinca with Vanilla Ice Cream is the perfect monsoon indulgence. Or try the Strawberry Panacotta, Gulab Jamun, or Choco Chunk Brownie with ice cream. If you prefer frozen, the Mississippi Mud Chocolate Ice Cream never disappoints.

 

Why Wait for Season? The Best View Is Now.

Palms n Sands is proud to be one of the few sea view restaurants in Goa serving a full menu during monsoon — not a reduced card, not limited hours. We stay open because we know some of the best Goa moments happen with the skies grey and the waves loud.

If you’re searching for a reliable beach side restaurant in Goa that guests return to all year round — especially when it rains — we’re ready.

Book a table today. Let the sea, the rain, and our food do the rest.
