What is Goa like in October (half term)

[drownangels]

I will have a 14 year old and possibly 17 year old with me (sons)

I'v been wanting to go for a while and only have a week of leave left once I've took my others and wanted somewhere warm (not roasting hot) and where I have been meaning to go.

Would anyone recommend it?

I have only ever been to Goa during the winter months. I am sure October in Goa would be lovely if you don't mind rain and not being able to swim.

Personally, I think Goa is overrated. Too many drunk tourists, package holiday makers,very poor infrastructure and lots of tensions between locals and the tourist industry.

Sorry to be so negative about it. I used to love Goa, but it has unfortunately been exploited by (people like myself) tourists.
