Goa has its own international airport, Dabolim (GOI), with good connections from both. Total travel time from the East Coast with one connection is typically 18 to 22 hours. From the West Coast, it can be slightly shorter via Southeast Asian hubs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plan your stay for a minimum of 7 nights to get genuine benefit. Ten to fourteen days is the sweet spot for a meaningful Ayurvedic and yoga immersion. Shorter trips can feel rushed and limit what the healing process can do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best time to book is three to five months in advance for the peak November through February window. Popular Goa yoga retreats in this period sell out well ahead of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visa requirements for US citizens are straightforward.
