Goa government has come up with a concept of co-working spaces on the beaches. The state is going to promote the “culture of #WorkationGoa” through co-working spaces to be created on the beaches, said Tourism and Information and Technology (IT) Minister Rohan Khaunte.  

Rohan Khaunte, Minister of Tourism, Goa, said the state is trying to position itself as a tech-tourism state by attempting to sell sun, sand and software. “Goa has all the potential in port, air, road; we will look at more infrastructure support through the Sagarmala projects”, he said.

Goa Tourism Minister Rohan Khaunte said an agency would be appointed for integrated management of beaches, which would include round the clock cleaning of the shoreline. “The integrated module for beach management will include tourism information centre, convenience centre, beach cleaning round the clock, surveillance cameras, proper illumination. Since police can’t be posted round the clock at beaches, the tourism department will employ personnel to curb illegal activities like touting, unauthorized vending,” the minister said. 

Rohan Khaunte, Tourism Minister, Goa, has said that online approval and registration services for the tourism industry will be rolled out within a week. Speaking at a Travel and Tourist Association of Goa (TTAG) event, he said that the state needs to focus on a long-term strategy to attract high spending tourists.
