Tourists in Goa repeat old shame in New Year

1. GOAAAHHHH!

On New Year's Eve, Goa's beaches were transformed into a sea of people to ring in the New Year by leaving all their worries and troubles behind.

2. RIDING THE WAVES

And when you are in Goa, the fun one can have is limitless and the tourists did just that -- they soaked in the wave of fun.

3. LIQUID COURAGE

And for this drunk tourist, the fun was unlimited. This picture what you see is the traditional saga of bad tourists, who bring shame to Goa's tourism on New Year's eve.

4. PLEASE LISTEN

Despite warning from lifeguards, numerous tourists were seen blatantly disregarding the red flags indicating a no-swim zone and attempting to venture into the sea.

5. LIQUOR FOR BREAKFAST

Despite the ban on open drinking, these tourists cheered to the good times while the Goa police were nowhere to be seen to enforce the law.

6. TRASH TOURISM

This picture taken at Baga clearly shows how tourists left their drunken footprints behind, even as the entire coast was littered with all kinds of trash.

7. OUT OF CONTROL

The roads leading to Baga, Colva, Calangute and other coastal villages in Goa experienced hours of traffic congestion till the New Year.

8. THIS IS THE REAL STORY

Even as the sun set for the last time on December 31 and the New Year dawned, it became evident again that Goa has not learnt its lessons and allowed public alcohol consumption and rowdy behaviour on its beaches.
