Its Campal Park or Campal Beach or Children Park.
Its becoming very popular too. Recently a large group from Siolin or Candolim
came
here (Parish counccil). Also understands many school picnics come too. Its
quiter
compare to miramar beach etc.
Its a nice family spot. Plenty of children play activities, Pedal boating
within the
garden, canteen, Bhelpuriwala, Icecreamwala etc.
One can see tourist boats (river crusing) passing, Barges carrying iron ore,
fishermen boats etc. During the day time one can seat on the benches under the
shades (see pic) and relax.
