I provide a traditional crab-catching experience on the peaceful waters of Chapora River, where travellers enjoy hands-on learning, natural surroundings, and pure Goan riverside charm. My trip combines adventure, culture, and relaxation in a safe and friendly environment. With my local knowledge and simple guidance, you discover how crabs are caught using traditional Goan traps while enjoying the calm beauty of Mangrove-lined river stretches in Morjim.
Crab Catching in Morjim – A Unique Goan Riverside Adventure
I operate River Chapora Boat Ride from Near Fisherman Place, Tembwada, on Turtle Beach Road in Morjim. This river location is known for its clean, calm waters and rich crab population. When I take you for a crab-catching trip, I want you to experience something natural, authentic, and connected to Goan culture.
The river environment stays peaceful and refreshing. As the boat moves softly along the mangroves, you can feel the beauty of the surroundings and the excitement of discovering what waits inside the crab traps.
Learn Traditional Goan Crab Trap Methods
Crab catching in Goa is an old and simple art. I teach you how locals use small, hand-made traps called koblem or cast traps to catch crabs naturally. I show you how to place the trap in the right position, how bait attracts crabs, and how to lift the trap safely.
You do not need experience. I guide you through every step. Many travellers enjoy the thrill of pulling out a trap and seeing a fresh crab inside. The moment feels exciting, surprising, and joyful.
Explore Mangroves and Calm Chapora Backwaters
The crab-catching route passes through natural mangrove stretches that stay peaceful and full of life. The river water moves slowly here, creating the perfect environment for crabs. You see small fish swimming near the surface, birds resting on the branches, and the quiet charm of Goan backwaters.
This part of the trip becomes a calm nature ride, where you feel close to the river and away from crowded tourist areas. The soft breeze, natural greenery, and clean river surroundings make the experience more beautiful.
Safe, Enjoyable, and Perfect for All Ages
Crab catching is a fun activity for families, couples, solo travellers, and anyone who loves learning something new. I make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I keep the boat stable, manage all traps carefully, and guide you in a friendly and easy way.
Children especially enjoy watching the traps being pulled out of the water. The excitement of seeing a live crab becomes a special moment for them.
A Cultural Experience Along With Adventure
This activity gives you more than just adventure. You also learn how rivers support local Goan communities. You see how fishermen depend on small traps and mangroves for their daily livelihood. I share interesting stories about river life, crab behaviour, and the traditional methods used for generations.
These small details make the trip meaningful and connect you to the natural side of Goa that many travellers never experience.
Memorable Moments and Natural Beauty
Every crab-catching moment feels unique. The excitement of checking each trap, the beauty of mangroves, and the peaceful movement of the river create perfect memories. Many travellers take photos of the traps, the surroundings, and the experience itself.
Morning and evening trips offer soft natural light that makes the river look even more beautiful.
