Drive to Goa, is what I call a day having fun, be it going for work with the team or with the wife.. and now the kid..., it's a day, no matter what, you know will end with a smile.
The coastal highway unlike the flat, straight, Pune-Sawantwadi road, is one large ghat all the way to Goa. There are gentle bends, tight corners, downhill turns and uphill ones, all flowing into each other with a minimum of traffic around, so you can use all the road you want and throw the car around as much as your seats will allow. All you need to do is get past Nagothane by about 7 am and then enjoy. A full tank gets you to Goa, most of the time as long as you don't get stuck at 6000rpm, and you save a few bucks topping up in Goa. The biggest problem is that the off season / dead time in Goa is the best time to drive there. So work out your permutations and combinations and figure out the best time for your trip. Mine is every 3 months, work or no work, rain or sun, beach shacks or hotels...as long as the beer is cold, and being Goa ..it is.
