SAN JACINTO ISLAND: THE MOST EXOTIC PART OF SOUTH GOA One of the most exotic places of South Goa — the San Jacinto Island is located just few kilometers north-east from the Dabolim International Airport. People say that in the 30's years of the 20th century, the San Jacinto inhabitants made a vow never to give the island on a lease and let construction companies to built touristic or industrial facilities on their land. That’s why nowadays this small island is a lovely green area, which has preserved the purity and charm of amazing Goa nature. Most of the island is covered with forests and just the south-western coast is dotted with old houses, among which a beautiful old white church is overlooked above. It can be seen far away from the NH-17 Vasco – Panaji coastal highway. Local citizens call this church the St. Hyacinthi Cathedral and celebrate its birthday on the last Sunday of September.
