About Talsari Beach

Talsari Beach is a hidden gem situated in the Baleswar district of Odisha, near the West Bengal border. The name Talsari is derived from the rows of palm trees ('Tal') lining its coast ('Sari'). It is unique for its calm backwaters, red sand crabs, and serene, flat coastline. The gentle sea waves and tranquil environment make it a perfect spot for those looking for an offbeat and relaxing beach vacation away from commercialization.

Pro Tips

Take a boat ride across the backwaters to reach the main beach.

Watch out for the distinct red crabs that scurry across the sand.

Ensure your vehicle has high ground clearance if driving the Marine Drive from Konark to Puri, as sand drifts often narrow the road lanes.

Avoid using any artificial lights (including phones) if walking near Olive Ridley nesting sites at night to prevent disturbing the hatchlings.

Be cautious of muddy water reducing visibility and current strength.

Visit during early morning or late evening to avoid intense sun exposure.
