Balighai beach is a very popular picnic spot, located near the holy seaside city of Orissa. It is situated at a distance of about 8 km from the holy city of Puri, which is caressed by the turbulent waters of the Bay of Bengal. This beach is uniquely located at the juxtaposition of the Bay of Bengal and river Nuanai. The beach is well known for its scenic natural beauty and calm environment. Away from the hustle and bustle of your city life, this relatively secluded beach can come as a welcome relief and retreat for the tourists.
The best time to visit Balighai beach is during October to June. A unique feature of this beach is its casuarinas trees lined river. It is an isolated and very clean beach, offering magnificent views of sunrise and sunset. All these make Balighai beach an ideal picnic spot, which is also favoured by the honeymooners to romance and relax, while snuggling in the serenity of nature. But thankfully still very few are aware of this paradise, other wise it would have reduced itself to another tourist destination.
Here one may also have glimpses of the Baliharina deer that lives in this area. The Sea Turtle Research Center is another tourist attraction of this beach. You can enjoy the usual beach activities on Balighai beach, which include swimming, sunbathing and other assorted water sports. However, spending some hours with yourself or your beloved and counting the breaking of endless waves on the calm shore is also a wonderful experience, which also happens to be a humbling one. You realize that tomorrows nothing may remain the same, but the waves would till come…
Succinctly, a visit to Balighai beach is definitely an unforgettable experience for the tourists.
