Chandipur Beach
Chandipur
(16 kms) away from Balasore Railway Station on Howrah-Madras line of South Eastern
( S.E.) Railways annique beach where the sea water recedes about 5 kms during
low-tide and advances to the shore line again during high-tides each day. An
ideal beach resort of Orissa.
Backed up by musical sway of casuarina trees and creepered sand dunes, Chandipur
is one such beach, but with a unique distinction on its own. Unlike other beaches,
the sea water here recedes away from the shore line about five km twice a day,
an unusual phenomenon, rarely found anywhere. ?You can see the sea literally
vanishing before your eyes and also watch it coming back rhythmically at regular
intervals, as if playing hide and seek.
