Discover the Tiny Wonders: Insect Watching in Goa with Untamed West Birding
Goa is often celebrated for its beaches, birds, and backwaters—but few realize that it’s also a goldmine for insect biodiversity. At Untamed West Birding, we offer guided insect watching in Goa that opens your eyes to the fascinating world of bugs, beetles, butterflies, and beyond.
Whether you’re a macro photographer, a wildlife enthusiast, or just curious about nature’s smallest architects, our insect walks are designed to give you a deeper, often overlooked, connection with the wild.
