This Beach in the pilgrim city of Puri is the most popular beach in Odisha and the largest in the country. The splendid beach stretches up to seven km and is a round-the-year destination for both domestic and international travellers. Visitors can enjoy both the sunrise and the sunset, sunbathe, sit back on the beach and watch local fishermen pulling their catch or mending their nets play with the waves, along with listening to the melodious rendition of the striking waves. Compared to other beaches in the country, the Puri Beach is considered to be safer as it does not face high tide and undercurrent very often. High tides occur only during full moon, so taking a bath in the sea is an enjoyable experience.

What sets the Puri beach apart from the rest of the beaches in any other part of the country is its popularity among both tourists and devotees.
Puri is easily accessible by any means of Transport. But i personally prefer taking private taxi. I had booked a Toyata car which had cost me approximately around Rs 4000 in the year 2018. The private taxi had took me from Puri railway Station to all the famous places in Bhubaneswar such as Lingraj Temple, Udayagiri, Konark Temple , a beach which is near by to Konark and many more and return back Puri Railway Station.This will be best for any of the tourists.Hotels are easily available.
