Situated 16 km from Balasore,the beach at Chandipur is surely one of the finest in India. This peaceful resort with sand dunes green with wild creepers and Casuriana trees whistling in the breeze has a special secret.

It is a unique sea beach where seawater recedes about 5 kms. during low tide and advances to the shoreline again during high tide,each day. The sand dunes and casurina groves make it particularly attractive.

You can also make a trip to Bhitar Kanika Wildlife Sanctuary. The sanctuary was established mainly to protect the nesting habitat of the 3,00,000 olive ridley marine turtles who come to the mouth of the Brahmani river here each winter to nest.

The nearest railhead is Balasore,16 kms away which is connected to Bhubhaneswar,Cuttack,and Calcutta by regular buses.

Some other magnificient beaches in India provide the most tempting combination of sun,sand,sea and surf that is too hard to resist for any beach lover and water sport adventurer.
