Digha-Seaside Resort town.
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.
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.
