Sharing a glimpse of this tranquil getaway, a content creator-mom took her kid to this beautiful coastal town: Daman. The video showed the family spending a slow weekend, doing simple and kid-friendly activities.

They also spent time on Jampore Beach, went boating and tried zip cycling above the trees at Devka Adventure Zone. They also explored the colourful Portuguese streets, historic forts, and lighthouse and wandered through the local night market in Nani Daman.
