If you are looking for a secluded sea beach, Talsari is definitely the place to be. Located in the state of Orissa, this serene beach is less than half an hour journey by road from Digha. Blue hills, green paddy fields, numerous rivers, and extensive beaches welcome you as you enter Talsari. In Bengali, Tal means palm trees and sari means a row. It is said that the region derived its name owing to the rows of palm trees that line this scenic spot. The word Tal also means rhythm which is probably reflective of the ceaseless sea waves beating against the shores.
While witnessing a sunrise or a sunset from the sandy beach is a fascinating experience, Talsari’s backwaters are another major attraction. The estuary of the River Subarnarekha can be viewed from a distance. Interestingly, you need to cross the backwater to reach the main sea at Talsari. Spend a relaxing weekend by the beach and opt for some lip-smacking delicacies like a prawn curry—you will be craving for more. A tour of this small coastal town will definitely create unforgettable memories for you.
