Terekhol, Chapora, Mandovi, Zuari, Sal, Talpona and Galgibag open into the sea and these provide excellent nurseries for major fishes. This has significantly helped people of coastal areas in undertaking fishing activities as source of livelihood. The coastal and inshore waters are known to be very rich in1084 OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
