In Goa, the boat operators operate on the rivers, in the backwaters primarily on Mandovi River. If the weather turns unfavourable, the team will call in advance you warn you. You too keep an eye on the weather and call the operator and get an up to date operational readiness.
There are different boarding points. If you book with us, the boarding point would have been in the confirmation you received. Call the operator if you are in doubt.

Very valid question.
As you will be driving around with a driver, he will find a place to park.
But Boat Goa, Fun Cruises and other operators provide pre-booked parking to their guests.
Locals are supportive of those coming to enjoy the waters. They are cooperative.
Here are some tips for you.
Avoid honking, speeding, cutting lanes and blocking narrow roads by being considerate, sensitive to residents who live in their villages.
When coming to boating, follow the instructions given by the captain, master, crew on approach (take this road), parking and general guidelines.
Be sensitive to those who live in their quiet homes but are being bothered almost daily by tourists.
There are numerous locations where boating is available locally. You need to locate them yourself. We are working on onboarding all locations and if you find a location and would like it to be part of the portal, please send us an email at sailing@orcasail.com
