Beautiful Relaxing Place
Con
Too crowded.
In a nutshell
Nice place to enjoy & relax.
mamtap Says: I love seafood and Digha is a superb source for seafood. There are many cheap “restaurants” all over Digha, serving cheap, but excellent Bengali dishes. There are some expensive restaurants where continental food is available, serving delicious food. Digha is a great place...
imukhopadhyay Says: Go to the beach in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening. Visit other places like Chandaneswer Temple. Visit Jetty near Chandaneswer Temple were you find fresh FISH get offloaded from trawlers.
goutammitra Says: Though people have made it a beach for fun, but heart and heart it remains a beach for the fisherman, who live by the sea. It is the only source of their livelihood. But since the invention of Deep sea fishing Trawlers their livelihood has become limited. The trawlers get...
goutammitra Says: Laze around in Digha and watch the sea and its' charm. Since it is the nearest Beach from Kolkata, it has emerged as a relaxing destination with in very short time and budget. It is also a very popular destination for the movie makers at a affordable cost. We also witnessed...
goutammitra Says: It is difficult to pass the evening as per your choice in Digha. So what do you do in the evening? Just behave like Romans in Rome, well I mean do exactly what the locals and people from Calcutta do. Just take a stroll of the Beach, eat fresh fish fry, watch the crowd, watch...
goutammitra Says: This beach has no clear blue water as the depth of the Sea is less. The real pleasure of Bathing in other Indian beaches like Goa, Kovalam, Vizag, Puri is not there. But what is available people make use of it, to the most.
goutammitra Says: What do you do in Sea Beach ? You laze around, bath, run , have some drinks, come back again and again. Well we did exactly we could do at Digha. The temperature was over 38-39 degrees Celcius and humidity at 100%, we were expecting some rain. But God was kind to us. There...

Azad Hind Dhaba.: Gourmet's Delight on way to Digha.
goutammitra Says: While driving to Digha we had Lunch at this great place called Azad Hind Dhaba. Dhaba means eating place. In olden days Dhaba used to cater to the Truckers only and the food was Typically Punjabi style like Roti, Tadka( lentils) & Chicken. In the Last about 30 years Indian...
Biryani House.: Digha Restaurants.
goutammitra Says: We had all meals at hotel only. But Digha has many restaurants. While coming back we thought we shall have Biryani ( Mutton or Chicken), at Biryani house. The food is just average and not at anything near to Quality what is available at Kolkata. But this place is worth...

Address: behind the old digha beach.
mamtap Says: High tidal waves are the most important problem of the old Digha beach, which sometimes make swimming, insecure. Digha's old beach isn't as large as it used to be due to heavy soil wearing away. Big stones and solid steps are use to seize the beach. The beach at Old Digha is...
For travelers, who don't like overcrowded places!!
mamtap Says: Since Old Digha is one of the very few popular beaches in West Bengal (India), it gets overcrowded, especially during the winter. And it's little more dirtier too. The better option would be New Digha Beach, which is around 2 km far from the old beach. This new beach is...
goutammitra Says: Not all our experience is good about Digha. While coming back we stopped for lunch at Biryani House. We had just kept our car ( See picture), in front of this hotel, without knowing that this hotel patronises GOONS as their waiters and bearers. They came shouting, fighting ,...
goutammitra Says: While the kids were enjoying the sea, the fishermen were returning the Beach with their catch. They also caught this sea snake, which according to them is poisonous. They advised the kids not to go deep in the sea and take notice of these creatures. I am not sure this Snake...
