A 400-metre beach between Bankimuhan to Panthaniwas has been developed by voluntary organization, Barefoot.
A community-run sea beach, first of its kind in Odisha, was thrown open to tourists at Puri recently.
The model beach boasts of palm leaf shades and beach chairs for the comfort of visitors. Barefoot plans to introduce some beach recreation activities and erect temporary cubicles where tourists, mostly women can change their clothes after a bath in the sea.
"Lifeguard Service" is available on our beach. The lifeguards are being trained and will be given modern equipment to prevent drowning mishaps in the demarcated area. Care has been taken to see that Beach vendors will not pester tourists.
