From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gabit is a community found in the Konkan regions of the Indian states of Goa. Karnataka and Maharashtra.^[1]

In Goa, they are distinct from the Kharvi community found mostly in the south of that state, although they share a similar traditional occupation. The Gabits are primarily a fishing community and are concentrated in the northern talukas of Canacona, Pernem and Salcete. They are Konkani-speaking Hindus and generally live in joint family arrangements, although a movement towards the nuclear family is evident.^[1]
