See all beach in Digha
Shankarpur
Digha, West Bengal, India Phone: Not AvailableAbout
Shankarpur is also known as virgin beach, only 14 km east of Digha. It is also a regular fishing harbour. This beach is mostly empty except on weekends. The mornings are cool, when fishermen can be seen hauling their huge nets out of the sea. The morning sun reflecting on the sea waves in the east, and the local fishboats on the coast offer excellent photographic opportunities.
Shankarpur itself is something of a surprise package, known to locals but largely hidden from the world. A secluded beach, it's fringed by casuarinas and eucalyptus trees.The beach here does not draw the madding crowds like nearby Digha. You can walk on the beach chasing the sunset, up to a point where the delta of two small rivers stops you from going ahead
