💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in family-run homestays and eco-lodges (₹1,500-2,500/night) instead of hotels, and eat at local Bengali restaurants near the fish market where meals cost ₹200-400 per person versus ₹800+ at tourist spots
📅 October to February is ideal when the weather is cool (15-25°C) and sea turtle nesting activities peak, offering magical sunset views over calm waters. Avoid May-September monsoon season when heavy rainfall and rough seas make beach activities unsafe and unpleasant.
