This August 2011, I visited Digha for 4th time. But our plan was different this time. We have had bath in sea as usual, visited old Digha beach during sunset . Experience of sitting at old Digha Beach and sipping coffee and counting the waves kiss your legs are really low cost but high satisfaction value . These are all common all the time. But we made our journey unique spending more time Udaypur Beach.
Udaypur beach is very close to new Digha . Its 3-4 km off from New Digha Station and located along the Orissa and Bengal Border. If you have personal car , then it’s 10 min drive from New Digha Hotels . But the uniqueness of this place is flawless , serenity and peaceful existence of sea and nearby pine forest line are really awesome .
During our 3 days stays , every day in the morning we visited Udaypur Beach and spend time in Kaju Forest and had a small picnic in the pine forest near the shore end . If your luck is good, you can park your car on the sea beach, spend some time nearby tents selling coconut water and refreshments.
If you want to go by local transport and if you are young then better go by walking ( 3 km – not too long ) from new Digha , walk along the main road or take the parallel road close to shore . I have had experience of walking along that route . Experienec was awesome ! Morning was so chariming , that you can walk and reach that place . Otherwise you can take local van on a contract basis .
What to see in Udaypur beach:
1. No mad rush of new Digha – so enjoy peaceful nature .
2. Enjoy the familicy picnic under the pine trees just close to shore end . Sit on a mat , even you can lay on grass bed and have a deep breath and look at the sky through the pine tress . ( possibly try your voice on favoutrite notes )
3. 500 meter walk up into the Kaju Trees .
4. Sit on beach and sip the coconut water ( if Sea God permits )
5. You can place order of tea and snacks to local tents and they bring foods (better restrict it to tea, coconut waters and package foods only ) and enjoy it sitting on a grass bed . And have a deep look into the sea and try to find peace and peace in mind .
This place is not new to all Digha goers , but rediscover it in your won way . Forget your project deadline pressure , office pressure , business tension and keep you date only with sea and nature .
Let me know your views next time when you back from Udaypur Beach
