Gopalpur-on-sea, Chaandipur-on-sea and Chilka Introduction

Gopalpur-on-sea, an ancient seaport, is one of the most beautiful, unspoiled beaches one can see. Today, it is a modern, luxurious beach resort, and offers excellent facilities for surfing and sailing. Warm with gentle sunshine, the golden beach is an ideal palce to swim or laze around.

Chaandipur-on-sea
This place is still relatively undiscovered where the sea retreats several kilometers everyday, and life is serene and unhurried. And the superb beach at Balighai, where the river merges with the ocean. In a word, Chaandipur could be described as, ‘The Land of Hidden Treasures’. The Bay of Bengal beach here, is surely one among the finest sea beaches of India. But, with a plus, here the water recedes 3kms. off shore and proceeds rhythmically after a regular interval everyday. The lonely beach, whispering melody of dancing tamarisk trees, the cool breeze creates a fantastic mood.

Balaramgudi, Chaandipur
The largest fishing harbour meeting point of River Budibalam and the sea. Some research works are still being carried out here to find solution and cure from cancer with some specific sea-species

Panchalingeswar, Chaandipur
This place could really be called ‘the traveller’s paradise’. On a side of the peak of the mount Nilgiri. The temple of lord Shiva on the top, the moving fountain at its roar will turn anybody to sit here for hours.

Chilka Lake
This is the country's largest brackish water lagoon. South-west of Puri, Chilka Lake is dotted with islands and is noted for many migratory birds which flock to the nesting sanctuary here in winter. . It's peaceful enough place but probably of greatest interest to ornithologists.
