Salcete, is a Sub-district of South Goa district in the Indian state of Goa. Its administrative and economic headquarters is Margão. It is largely coterminous with a region called Saxti (pronounced Sashti), which comprised, by local tradition, sixty-six villages, hence the name. However, Saxti also included the now separate sub-district of Mormugão.
