Not so sandy Odxel Beach - A Quiet beach in Goa popular amongst locals for picnics

Recently I shared about Bay15 in Goa which is located on Odxel Beach only and after that block some of the Travellingcamera friends asked about this beach as many didn't know about it. So we thought that probably we should try to share more on the basis of my knowledge and some research based information about this beach near Dona Paula area of Goa.

Odxel beach is approx 10 km from Panjim Kadamba Bus Stand. It's not really a sandy beach and have rocks, so one can't imagine to walk bare feet or swim around this beach.
