History
The Marine Drive in Tajpur is a relatively recent development aimed at boosting tourism and improving connectivity between Tajpur and neighboring coastal towns like Mandarmani and Shankarpur. Its construction was part of a larger initiative to enhance infrastructure and promote the region as a significant tourist destination on the Bay of Bengal coast. Prior to the construction of the Marine Drive, access between these towns was limited and often difficult, especially during high tide. The road has not only facilitated easier travel but has also opened up new opportunities for local businesses and tourism-related activities. The development has been instrumental in showcasing the natural beauty of the area and attracting a larger number of visitors, contributing to the economic growth of the region.
