Alrich Shack

Tucked away along the secluded sands of Gansua, Alex Place Beach Shack is a hidden gem where the raw beauty of Goa meets refined coastal dining. Perched on Pacheco Vaddo’s unspoiled shoreline, this intimate shack offers a serene escape from crowded beaches, with the rhythmic lull of waves setting the scene. Famous for its hyper-local, catch-of-the-day seafood, the kitchen excels in Goan-Portuguese classics, with the signature *recheado masala pomfret*—a fiery, tangy stuffed fish grilled to perfection—and the creamy *crab xacuti* standing as must-orders. The atmosphere is effortlessly chic: candlelit tables on warm sand, a gentle sea breeze, and the scent of charcoal-grilled prawns mingling with salt air. Dining here feels like a private soirée, where every dish tells a story of the coast. For those seeking authentic, high-end shack culture away from the crowds, Alex Place is a luminous discovery.
