by - June 29, 2018



If it ever happens that you are in West Bengal (Especially near Kolkata and Midnapur) and you love sea food then Digha is absolutely a place for you to visit. Digha is a seaside resort town in the state of West Bengal, India. It lies in Purba Medinipur district and at the northern end of the Bay of Bengal. It has a low gradient with a shallow sand beach. It is the most popular sea resort in West Bengal. We all love to enjoy the pleasant climate of places near sea. Isn't it? If you do then do let me know in comment section down below. I had the beautiful opportunity to visit Digha in the months of January. Here I am sharing the beautiful experience of mine with all of you my readers,do seat back and enjoy!

Day 1
So I boarded in train from Khagraghat Railway Station. Around 5 a.m,I arrived at Howrah Railway Station. I had near about 1 hour and 30 mins to kill. Then I went to the rest room to freshen up and had some Tea to keep myself warm in the chilly cold morning. Then I invested my rest of the time to do photography of the surrounding area. Around 6:30 a.m. I got ready to catch Tamralipta Express.

Day 2
Around 10 a.m,we arrived at Digha station. From there booked cabs to our hotel. As My hotel was near the beach, I had the opportunity to experience the soothing climate of the place. After having lunch,I decided to visit the beach.The beach was pretty, much crowded but still I managed to find a place from where I can enjoy the view. There was something mysterious about the to and fro motion of the waves of water.The beach was so welcoming that I didn't realize  how I had  spent 4 hours.They were people around me and some were enjoying in taking bath in the sea. Some were playing with sand,some were enjoying sun bath while I chose to enjoy in taking pictures of the surrounding along with coconut water.

While heading back, I came across a beautiful mini-market where attractive stuff were sold.I couldn't help but became busy in shopping stuff.

Beautiful shell craft. 
Around 8 p.m,I headed towards a local restaurant to have some seafood. For non-vegetarian like me,it was one of the best sea foods I have ever had. After having my meal, I went back to Hotel





Day 3
I woke up around 4 a.m. in the morning.Within 5 a.m. I managed to get ready.Then my cab came to take me to enjoy rest of the area like Shankarpur which was 18 km away from Digha. Are you one of those people who enjoy drive at dawn? Well,I am one of those crazy person who enjoys drive during the dawn. But it was my misfortune that there were some issues with our car after 10 k.m. Around 8:30 a.m. after fixing the issues,we started our journey again. I was mesmerized by the beach view of Shankarpur,it was empty,peaceful and  beautiful. The wait to come to this beach was completely worth of it. I was lucky enough to enjoy my breakfast with the beautiful view of the beach.

Around 12 p.m,I came to visit Chandaneswar Temple. The temple was pretty andmuch crowded. This Hindu temple was dedicated to Lord Shiva. Although the place was crowded but still it offered some positive vibes to me.After visiting the temple,I felt my soul was completely clam and cool.

I decided to have lunch and then head towards Digha Mohona Watch Point.Digha Mohona Watch Point offers a beautiful sea beach which is a good place to relax to have quality time. I was lucky enough to see some of the sand works near the sea beach.

 There is also Digha Mohona International Fish Market which I will suggest you to visit only if you a non-vegetarian and can withstand foul smell of the place. After witnessing the amazing Sunset of the place, I decided to explore the fish Market.Around 8:30 p.m. after having satisfied with dinner in one of the local restaurants, I came back to the Hotel.





Day 4
 This day I was a bit sad as I had to leave this place with soothing climate and get back to my normal life. But I had nothing to do except for the fact that I had to pack  my bags again and catch my train  around 9 a.m.
