Chilika is a lagoon on the east coast of India. A small sea connects it to the Bay of Bengal. Its water is full of life, just like the water in all coastal lakes. As it spreads along the east coast, it is the biggest brackish water lagoon that looks like an estuary. Here, more migrating waterfowl spend the winter than anywhere else on the Indian subcontinent. The districts of Puri, Khurda, and Ganjam in Odisha State are home to Chilika Lagoon. It is on the eastern side of India.

Chilika Lake & Boating

The Indian Ocean's east side is home to the huge, dreamlike Chilika Lagoon. As it spreads along the east coast, it is the biggest brackish water lagoon that looks like an estuary. Here, more migrating waterfowl spend the winter than anywhere else on the Indian subcontinent. Boating on Chilika Lake in Odisha is a peaceful experience with a variety of birds, beautiful scenery, and calm water. It's great for nature lovers and people who like to try new things.

Chilika Lake & Sanctuary

Chilka Lake in Odisha is the largest freshwater lake in Asia. It has a few small islands, such as the romantic Honeymoon Island and the functional Breakfast Island. This pear-shaped lake is apart from the Bay of Bengal and has one of the best ecosystems in the area. It is famous as the Chilka Lake Sanctuary. In addition to having some of the calmest plants and animals, Chilka Lake Sanctuary is famous for its beautiful views of the sunrise and sunset. A lot of people come to this refuge to see this beautiful view.

Nalabana Wildlife Sanctuary

The island of Nalabana was made a refuge in 1987. It's right in the middle of Chilika. The area is a great place for thousands of local and migrating birds to stay safe, and winter is the best time to see birds. When it comes to visiting the sanctuary, winter is the best time because most of the birds are there, and the refuge is mostly submerged in water. It is the best place to visit in Chilika.

Satapada Dolphin Sanctuary

Satapada is the best spot to see Irrawaddy dolphins. Because the Irrawaddy dolphin is a shy animal, it is very rare to see the whole dolphin. Usually, you can see some of its tail or head when it swims or spits. Since the Dolphin Sanctuary was built here a few years ago, this place has become a big draw for tourists. This mountain is on the southeast corner of Chilika Lake.
