Digha Beach, located in the proximity, is referred to as 'Brighton of the East'. The low gradient with a shallow sand beach extends 7 km in length. The beach gives a beautiful view of sunrise and sunset. It is a safe beach for swimming as sea at Digha is calm and shallow for about a mile from the beach.
Highlight of the beach is the Casuarinas plantations along the sea shore. Identified as Beerkul during colonial rule, the beach resort has early mentions as a Brighton of the East. Thereafter in 1923, English tourist John Frank Smith settled at this place.
