MEDICINAL SPRINGS
These springs are located on the Baga beach. If you are tired with the salty sea water or want a health rejuvenation, then escape from Baga and head here. The medicinal springs can be reached by taking the narrow road past the Bom Viagem Convent along the cashew covered foothills, and there you are in Springs at Mottant. This is an ideal spot for picnics and bathing as water is considered to be medicinal here.
