The Casino Goa is a live casino located offshore in Panaji in Goa.[1][2] The casino is located on a yacht, the M.V. Caravela, anchored in the River Mandovi. The casino vessel worth is 110 million Rupees and is owned by the Advani Pleasure Cruise Co Ltd, a subsidiary of Delta Corp and Casinos Austria.[3][4] It has around eleven tables of American Roulette, Blackjack and Paplu (Rummy) besides a few electronic slot machines.[5]
The setup of the casino was controversial as live gambling is outlawed in India.[6][7][8] This was partially circumvented by hosting it off the mainland. The government in Goa is promoting offshore goa casino[9] ship by granting new licences to more companies in an attempt to generate more tourist related revenue.[10] Goa state is the only one in India that permits both electronic inland casinos[11] as well as live offshore ones.[12]
In 2021, the company announced that it would be investing 1.5 billion in building a new vessel to replace Caravela.[13]
