Overview: Famed as a hippy hangout since the 70s, the main source of Anjuna's enduring popularity is its superb beach. Fringed by fluorescent painted palm trees, the curve of soft white sand conforms more closely to the archetypal vision of paradise than any other beach on the north coast. The quieter southern end is protected by rocky outcrops while to the north the beach widens and stretches for almost a mile past groups of bars, cafes and handicraft stalls. Revellers from the UK and all over India come to Anjuna lured by the club scene and the promise of big beach parties, particularly over Christmas and New Year. Outside this peak season the resort normalises to a simple, relaxed atmosphere, except on Wednesdays when locals and tourists flock from all around to come to the famous Flea Market.
