Mandarmani, at a distance of 180 km from Kolkata Airport, allures tourists to spend a solitary weekend in its sea-side resorts on-looking the tumultuous sea with a quiet, golden beach. Unlike other neighbouring beaches of Digha or Puri, the beach of Mandarmani is still un-trod upon by multitude of tourists. The freshness of landscape and the tranquil surrounding are what make Mandarmani a preferred weekend destination.

Chawalkhola comes midway between Kolkata and Digha. Mandarmai is half an hour drive from here. Traveling by Shalimar-Digha Express till Contai, Mandarmai can be reached by private car.
