The coastal stretch of Orissa is dotted with hamlets of tribal fishermen and Hindu temples that Orissa is famous for. Gopalpur Beach in Orissa, just 190 kilometres from Bhubneshwar, is a popular beach with golden sand and a gentle slope that makes it ideal for swimming and sunbathing. An old light house now remains of an ancient seaport at Gopalpur but the natural beauty that abounds is eternal.
