Hollant beach is located within a shallow bay that has a gentle slope towards the sea. There are no currents flowing here and the beach is very safe for swimming. Hollant beach is a small beach located to the south of Bogmalo beach. It is located at a distance of 7 kms. from Vasco city. During low tide the beach area substantially increases since the slope of the beach is gradual and shallow. Further into the sea, fishermen often anchor their boats.
Due to the shallow draft of the water at this beach, it is a favorite amongst families. Often families can be seen frolicking in the shallow water and enjoying themselves. There are just a couple of beachside shacks at this beach. No major hotels are located close to the beach. However accommodation can be found with the locals at guest houses and villas on rent.
One can only travel here with their own vehicle. The beach is well connected by road though. To the left side of the beach, a small trail through a hillock which leads to Cansaulim beach.
