Though you may plan your visit of the Varca beach any time of the year , the months from November to April are the best in all respects.
However the monsoon season holds a different kind of a sway in Goa and that's altogether another thrilling feel to be at the beaches of Goa in the monsoons which I believe is absolutely an amazing experience.
Even though swimming is considered safe you must check out with the lifeguards for the strength of the undercurrents and it is best to follow their advice to make your holiday pleasant and trouble free.
