Vanxim

Vanxim or Capão is an island of Goa situated in the Ilhas region.

Mahendra Gaunekar sold the parts of the island to Ozone corporate.

During the months of April and May the feasts of the Miraculous Chapel and Santo Cristo are celebrated.

Branching out of Mandovi as one goes across the Naroa, a Cross is visible in the midst of waters before approaching Vanxim.

Constructed by the villagers, the Cross was in the memory of a doctor, Louis Cabral, who drowned at this point when his canoe capsized while he was on his way to see a patient in Vanxim Island.
