Chilika Lake is a brackish water lagoon, spread over the Puri, Khurda and Ganjam districts of Odisha state on the east coast of India, at the mouth of the Daya River, flowing into the Bay of Bengal, covering an area of over 1,100 km2. It is the largest coastal lagoon in India and the second largest lagoon in the world.
It is the largest wintering ground for migratory birds on the Indian sub-continent. The lake is home to a number of threatened species of plants and animals.
The lake is an ecosystem with large fishery resources. It sustains more than 150,000 fisher–folk living in 132 villages on the shore and islands.
The lagoon hosts over 160 species of birds in the peak migratory season. Birds from as far as the Caspian Sea, Lake Baikal, Aral Sea and other remote parts of Russia, Kirghiz steppes of Mongolia, Central and southeast Asia, Ladakh and Himalayas come here. These birds travel great distances; migratory birds probably follow much longer routes than the straight lines, possibly up to 12,000 km, to reach Chilika Lake.

World famous Chilka lake,Odisha,India where we were duped of thousands of rupees by strangers at Lal kekra island who gave us live demonstration of how precious stones like Pukhraj, moti,moonga,black pearl etc.etc.were taken out of shells.BEWARE!!!
Chilka Lake is a brackish water lagoon on the east coast of India. You can hire boats to watch endangered 'Irrawaddy Dolphins' and travel across the lake. Your trip will be interrupted by these "Pearl" salesmen. They will break open shells and pull out pearls. Before I started recording this video, the fisherman had already checked out and discarded a few empty shells. I'm told that these "Pearls" are fake. I've also found that what is being sold for around Rs. 100/- by these travelling salesmen is available at Puri beach for Rs. 20/- or less!! Loved the experience and hence uploading the video.
Chilka the largest brackish water lagoon of Asia is one of the famous winter resort of Siberian and Himalayan birds, but it has also got the pride to be the largest habitat of Irrawaddy dolphin, says Chief Executive of Chilka Development Authority Dr Ajit Patnaik.

The Santragachhi WAP4 unleashes all 5000 horses at her disposal as she lights up a gloomy January evening and thunders past the Chilka Lake, the Eastern Ghats and Khallikot (Orissa) at the Maximum Permissible Speed of 110 kmph. The Chilka Lake is India's largest coastal lagoon and the second largest lagoon in the world, stretching out across the Puri, Khurda and Ganjam districts of southern coastal Orissa, adjacent to the Bay of Bengal.

As the early morning winter sun slowly rises into the firmament, a Santragachhi WAP4 tees off at her Maximum Permissible Speed of 110 kmph, charging past a glittering Chilka Lake and curling past the base of the Eastern Ghats in southern coastal Orissa.

Chilka lake located in Odisa and its best place for nature lover in India. Chilka Lake is very rich place for Flora and fauna. Incredible India.
You saw the journey to kalijain in first part and the Kalijai temple in second part. This is the third part of the movie which shows our visit to Chadhiguha island. It is a small island inside Chilika Lake about 10 kms from Kalijaai. This is called Chadei (bird) guha (nest) because lot of birds were taking shelter in this island. The island is made of only huge stones. There are many stories about his island. The rest you can see in the video.
Kalijai is one of the famous goddess temples inside Chilika lake. You have to take a boat either from Balugaon or from Rambha. We reserved a motor boat from Balugaon. The journey took about two hours to reach Kalijai Island. It was very thrilling as there was water and only water all around us. It was my first visit to Kalijai. I had a fear in my childhood as every year many people were drowning in the lake. But now-a-days the boats are better and safe. This is the first part of the video which show the starting of our journey from Balugaon and chilika view till we reached Kalijai.

Queen of natural beauty, Chilika, the largest brackish water lake in Asia covering an area of over 1,100 sq. km is a great attraction for the tourists for fishing, bird watching and boating.
