Hi,

Does anyone know where it's possible to play tennis in North Goa?

Thanks

No public courts that I am aware of. You will have to pay to use the tennis courts attached to one of the hotels or clubs.

I played at the Taj, Fort Aguada in the North & at the Leela Palace in the South. The Leela courts were much better & had a full fence around but there were no markers available - so you would have to bring your own partner. The Taj courts were not quite as good or enclosed but there was a marker for hire ... albeit it took a few days to locate & book him.

How much did you pay for a court at the Taj?

Thanks

I was staying there as a guest at the time - can't remember exactly but in the ballpark of 300 - 500rps.

There used to be a tennis court at Gregorys in South Anjuna. He also has a full sized Snooker table too...If you take the road from Oxford Stores across the paddy fields, its about 5 minutes. Ask in the store where Gregories is and they will direct you.
