TAMPARA LAKE, GANJAM, ODISHA
SCENIC,SERENE WITH WATER SPORTS
Last week, we went for a trip to Daringibadi, and on our way, we saw the Tampara Lake, which is just 500 meters away from the National highway. As we planned to stay one night at Gopalpur, so we decided not to miss this hidden beauty and spend some time and capture some memories. It's around 150 km from my place, so we may not go this route usually, but if you are going that way, I strongly recommend to enjoy some niche water sports available at the Lake. We were not prepared for the water sports, so we just explored the place, but next time, we will plan for the water sports, in case, we go that route.
She loved the place.
As soon as we started taking pictures in my Sony α6400M, the security ran to us and asked not to take pictures without paying for that. He called the boy sitting at the ticket counter on phone, and confirmed that, we did not take a ticket for the Camera ( I was not even aware and the person did not tell anything as well). I told them, I will pay, while going back, but then he insisted, we can't take photos without paying first. We can take photographs in mobile for free, but for digital cameras, you have to pay. I said, fine, we will take photos in Mobile only. And guess what is the price of taking photos in Digital Cameras ? ₹5000/- which they term as a photo shoot. That's definitely way above a common man can afford for taking few personal photos, which must not be classified as photo shoot. That's some weird mismanagement there for sure - they should have commonsense to differentiate between photo shoot vs family pics.
A passerby helped to capture a family photo on mobile.
Price of water sports is affordable, but we did not want to get wet, and going in the big boat needs a bit of time, which we did not have.
Tampara Resort is located as you come out of the place, and we decided to finish the lunch there, even though the original plan was to eat at some roadside dhaba. This is a private resort, and one can book and stay there, they charge ₹6-7k. The price of food was a bit higher, but it was very tasty - Berhampur is famous for good spicy food and they had that touch of taste here. May be in future, we will plan one night stay here, and enjoy the water sports.
While the food was being prepared, we captured some more photos in the resort garden.
A romantic place to go back in time and remind young age.
This post will be part of my Google review of this place. Do you like this place ? We have a lot of place in Odisha, which is kind of secret.

You have a lovely family. The place looks really nice. I like the use of different colors, and the view of the lake is wonderful.
Ya, it would be nice fit for a picnic, will plan one more trip.
The lake is really a beautiful place to visit and I love the romantic view as well very nice.
Best for young couple :)
Beautiful family, you all are so cute🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much.
5000 indian ruppee is hyped price for camera photoshoot. It's good choice that you captured photos on your mobile phone. These photos are reminder of your young age. But, don't worry bro you are still young 😉💖
Photos captured in garden are really eye-catching.
They are not.....
This place really looks so lovely and it will be great to visit this place and explore around
The place is very beautiful and also lovely people. Hope you had a great time and enjoyed the moment.
This place is really amazing! All of your photographs are wonderful!
What a view!! very nice.
Every country has some natural places and I like to see nature as natural places gives us true satisfaction.
This place will be so nice to visit with your lover
It is a very wonderful view
I love that
Looking so sweet with your wife!
Her presence does the magic :)
Oh my word, I've never heard of such a thing, they make you pay to take pictures in public? That's just nuts! The lake is definitely beautiful! It reminds me of my home, but without the palm trees!
Not in public, inside the park, which they have developed recently. But for a personal camera, they should not charge this much.
Ah, okay, that's still kind of crazy, but I understand now.
You look good together. I can feel the love you have for each other.
Thank you so much.
Wao view of Tampara Lake is superb.
Your country has some special resorts.
Nice family album of pictures.
I love to visit this kind of resorts.
Wonderful blog dear.
Keep up the good work.
Excellent photographs, friend. It is also incredible that you can share with your entire family in a place this magical.

It's good that you keep going to hang out with your family like this.
You are a beautiful family, Sanjeeji. Congrats!
I wanna see you on one of these jetskies next time 😉.
Thank you so much Sirjee we did experience the jetskies once , and did not try this time because it will make us wet anyways. A full night stay is planned for another time.
Reblogged!
It's a beautiful place indeed.
😊🤙 lovely family day..
I just realized.. how old are your kids? I also have 1 girl and 1 boy.. how cool is that! :)
They always are in opposite direction, but in times of need, they stand united :) Mine are 17 and 13, seems yours are a little more.
:) daughter is 18 and son is 16.
What a beautiful place! I think you should return one day for a full experience including the water activities too!
Hello dear friend @sanjeevm good morning
What a beautiful place you visited, what a shame you couldn't enjoy the water sports, maybe next visit
It is incredible that they want to charge so much money for using the digital camera, as you say, they do not make a difference between a family photo session and a photography session.
Beautiful photographs, I appreciate you sharing this experience.
have a great day
You guys are adorable ❤️ have a nice day @sanjeevm
That is very nice Beach @sanjeevm mybe one day and imagine the breeze of the air so satisfying
wow what a beautiful place to spend time with family.
Wow! you have a nice family💗.I think the price is just too much for a picture but any ways I'm glad that you guys are enjoying the serene beauty of the place.
I wonder what's the feeling to try water sports.Have a good day with your family 💗
That's definitely a lot of fun, we just did not want to get wet.
The place is beautiful it's very clean and quiet it's not crowded. So it's a perfect place to bond with your family and friends. You surely had a great time there.
True, it's peaceful there.
