I like Digha as a perfect weekend outing spot and especially so because I love sea beaches. Though i visited Digha and its other nearby beaches like Udaipur, Tajpur, Mandarmani, Shankarpur etc. several times, but still they attract me a lot whenever I think of a nearby weekend trip. "Link Hidden"

The hotels usually face the beaches so they aren't far away from you. I've grown up going on weekend road trips to Digha and I swear by it, I highly recommend this small beach town for a trip. Food and accommodation is standard. Beaches are crowded but you can find quiet spots. Great for new families and small children.

- Do not forget to carry mosquito repellent. Also, carry enough cash to last the trip since there are very few ATMs and even those are not completely reliable.
