St. Alex Church

St. Alex Church

St Alex Church in Calangute (near Baga) is a beautifully painted 18th-century Catholic church with a striking cream-and-cream exterior — one of Goa's most photographed churches. Surrounded by lush grounds, it is a peaceful heritage retreat in the middle of North Goa's most touristy neighbourhood. The church is still an active parish; Mass is conducted in Konkani and English. A top Goa heritage and photography stop offering a quiet spiritual moment amid the beach town's bustle.
