Visitors craft sand structures inspired by personal tales.
Goa has introduced Sandcastle Storytelling, where tourists build sand sculptures based on personal or traditional stories. According to Hindustan Times, facilitators provide sculpting materials, story prompts, and guidance to merge narrative with visual art.
Participants report creativity, collaboration, and social interaction. Critics question permanence, but organizers highlight engagement, mindfulness, and tourism appeal. Future expansions include competitive story-sculpting events, themed workshops, and collaborative beach murals to attract visitors.
