Sea Mouth Chilika
Fifteen kilometres from Satapada in Puri district, the Sea Mouth of Chilika is where the vast lagoon finally meets the open sea — a quietly dramatic spot best experienced from a boat. November through March brings calmer weather and peak bird-watching conditions, making the roughly five-hour round trip well worth the effort. Shade, toilets, and parking are all available, and there was no entry fee at last update.
