Shankarpur

Shankarpur is one of the most popular beach destination in the district of Purba Medinipore. It is also a prominent fishing village of India. Many tourists visit Shankarpur after seeing Digha. The beach is dotted with conifer trees. You can also see small huts of fishermen which add to the beauty of the sea beach. But the hotels in Shankarpur are located at some distance from the beach. The small town, and the lack of too many distractions, gives you a golden opportunity to spend as much time at the beach as possible.
