Last week, we went to a nice secluded beach, which I had never about before this. Its Jahania beach, right on the same road, which takes you to Konark beach, but instead of taking the right turn from Nimapara chowk, you will need to keep straight right to the Kakatpur road. It is situated 80kms from Cuttack, 35kms from Konark, 65kms from Bhubaneswar and 91kms from Puri. It lies in the coast of bay of bengal. It is famous for the lovely and long sandy beach.
The destination is very much accessible by motorable roads. I had taken my Audi A4 and others cars and we never had any issues, except me struggling with plenty of speed breakers in every 500 meters.
The picnic spot was kind of not very clean, we had to clean it off with some DIY brooms. The beach was very very clean and wide, unlike Konark and Puri beach. We even had almost 30 overs cricket match right on the beach sand.
It is a beautiful beach located in Astaranga. Famous shrine of Pir Jahania is just near the beach. Both Hindu and Muslims comes to this for taking blessings of Pir Jahania. This beach is a local attraction for picnikers. A lot of sheds developed by Govt for picnickers. Few handicraft items are also sold here. It is famous for the lovely and long sandy beach.
Ignore the picture quality, as they were shot with a very low resolution camera, since I did not carry my main cameras. But enough to show you, what it feels like to be there.
