Hukitola Beach
Hukitola Beach is located on Jambu Island in the Bay of Bengal, part of Kendrapara district in Odisha. The site is famous for a historic British-era building constructed around 1866-67 during a devastating famine to store rice imported from Burma, showcasing advanced 19th-century architecture and an innovative rainwater harvesting system that supplied drinking water year-round.
The building stands as a symbol of Odisha’s maritime heritage and colonial history, surrounded by scenic natural beauty including mangrove forests and pristine beaches. Hukitola has become an offbeat eco-tourism destination attracting history enthusiasts, scholars, and nature lovers. Access to the site is typically by boat from Kendrapara, contributing to its secluded and peaceful atmosphere.
Conservation efforts are ongoing to preserve its architectural and ecological significance, alongside the presence of endangered species like horseshoe crabs in the surrounding region.
