Sea Mouth Island

Satapada, Odisha, India
The Sea Mouth Island is a fascinating and dynamic geographical feature located at the meeting point of the Chilika Lake and the Bay of Bengal. This unique location is a narrow land spit that separates the vast freshwater lagoon from the sea, allowing for a mix of brackish water that is crucial for t he lagoon's ecosystem. A boat trip to the Sea Mouth is a popular extension of the dolphin-watching tour. As you approach the island, you can feel the distinct change in the water's character, moving from the calm, lake waters to the slightly more turbulent, salty ocean. Visitors can disembark and walk along the sandy strip, with the lagoon on one side and the open sea on the other. This area provides a spectacular view of the converging waters and the vastness of the Bay of Bengal. Small food kiosks, often run by local families, offer freshly caught and fried fish and crabs, providing a delightful culinary experience. The island is also a great place to witness the traditional fishing activities of the local villagers.
