Description

Gopalpur is a quaint sea town, which was earlier a seaport during the colonial era. Today. Gopalpur is one of the best beaches of the eastern coastline of the country. The beaches are sparkling gold, which along with the azure water of the Bay of Bengal provides a perfect place to relax and immerse yourself in nature. The seaport remains largely in ruins now. However, the peace and remoteness that prevails here and the offbeat crowd makes Gopalpur a great destination
