A lighthouse overlooking the confluence of a river and the sea, winding trails lined by casuarina and eucalyptus trees, a secluded beach - Junput offers plenty of attractions if you are willing to look beyond Digha and Mandarmani. Junput is about 9 kms from Contai town and is 40 km away from Digha by bus. Drive to Contai from Kolkata and then take a left turn towards Junput. Unlike Digha beach, during low-tide Junput becomes very wide and long enabling you to indulge in leisurely walks on the beach or picnic in the fir tree plantations.
