New Digha Beach
নিউ দিঘা সমুদ্র সৈকত
A wide sandy beach at the western end of Digha, with gentle slopes, fewer crowds, and a long seawall promenade. It is ideal for watching sunrises and sunsets and for walking along the waves.
New Digha Beach lies at the western end of town. Its sand is wide and gently sloping, and it is quieter and tidier than Old Digha. A long promenade runs along the seawall, where local families stroll in the evenings, ride horses, and eat fried fish snacks. At low tide the sand can extend several hundred meters, making it a great place to photograph sunsets. Newly built hotels, a science centre, and the Jagannath Temple, Digha are all within walking distance or a short e-rickshaw ride. The beach is open all day and is free. When the waves are rough, follow the lifeguards' flag warnings. Swimming is prohibited during the monsoon season.
