Old Digha Beach is one of the most prominent beach destinations located in the small beach town of Digha, in the state of West Bengal, India. Revered for its scenic views, shallow sand shores, and the vivacious waves of the Bay of Bengal, it's a popular spot for tourists seeking a blend of serenity and vitality. The coastline is dotted with casuarina plantations, which provide a unique green cover alongside the beach. Due to sea-erosion and protection measures, the actual beach may not be as wide as it once was, but it still draws large crowds, especially during weekends and holidays. Along the beach, there are myriad small shops and stalls where visitors can shop for local handicrafts and enjoy a variety of snacks. As the sun sets, the horizon paints a mesmerizing picture, making it an ideal place for photography enthusiasts. Even though it's called Old Digha, the beach buzzes with a youthful vibe, with activities like horse rides, and the sound of hawkers fills the air.
