Honeymoon in Gopalpur-on-Sea

Gopalpur-on-Sea is a lovely laidback seaport village in Orissa in East India. Gopalpur is a year-round destination, but the best time to go is from October to April. The temperatures range from a summer high of 35°C to a winter low of 16°C. The monsoon season (June to September) sees some hot and some very wet days. Honeymoon in enchanting Gopalpur and be mesmerized with exotic wildlife.

Gopalpur-on-sea is situated at a distance of 16 kilometers from Berhampur, Orissa, East India and is a tranquil beach holiday. The aqua blue naughty Bay of Bengal waters meet the static and peaceful Gopalpur beach in a romantic embrace as palm groves look on from a distance.

You can forget yourself at Gopalpur and have a lovely, lazy holiday. This languorous beach with coconut groves, casuarina coppices and gentle sand dunes is deserted for miles. Picture blue waters and high waves, sleepy lagoons and tiny creeks, a place where you can loll on the sand, stroll down the beach and gorge on seafood. Or tackle the high waves on a yacht moored at the crumbling ancient jetty… and then climb up the ancient lighthouse for a spectacular view of the bay.
The best thing about Gopalpur, besides the golden beach, is the seafood. This is a seafood lover’s paradise, but, like everything else in this resort, don’t expect meals in a hurry.
It is conveniently accessible from Behrampur, Bhubaneshwar, Puri and Barkul.

Enjoy a lazy honeymoon holiday in a laidback land dotted with fishing hamlets. Watch fisher folk employ ancient fishing techniques and enjoy the panoramic yet nearly deserted beach.

The name of Gopalpur-on-sea comes from an ancient Gopala temple which is dedicated to the Hindu deity Lord Krishna. You can see together at a beach shack and order a deliciously cooked seafood meal.
