Ribandar is a town in Tiswadi, Goa, located between the cities of Panjim (Nova Goa) and Old Goa (Velha Goa).
==Etymology== The name Ribandar originates from "Rayachem Bandar" in Konkani meaning the wharves, docks or portage of the Rayas or Kings. It is unclear which kings are meant here. The Rayas of Sangama Dynasty of Vijayanagar are believed to have built this port to facilitate the import of horses from Arabia.
