A trip to Digha from Kolkata is incomplete without indulging in the fresh, mouth-watering seafood the coastal town has to offer. From Pomfret to Prawns, the options are endless.
1. The Legendary Old Digha Fish Market
Right at the heart of Old Digha beach lies the ultimate paradise for seafood lovers. Hundreds of small stalls display the fresh catch of the day. You point at the fish you want, negotiate the price, and they marinate and fry it right in front of you. A must-try is the massive Pomfret Fry and Crab Masala.
2. Mohana Fish Market
Located near the Digha Mohana (where the river meets the sea), this is a wholesale market that operates vibrantly in the morning, where you can buy raw fish at unbelievable prices to take home to Kolkata or to your hotel kitchen.
3. Premium Seafood at Sea-facing Hotels
If street stalls aren't your preference, our premium partner hotels in New Digha offer hygienic, master-chef curated Bengali seafood thalis featuring Bhetki Paturi, Chingri Malai Curry, and Ilish Bhapa.
