Why Book Your Kolkata to Tajpur Car with Barakah Travels
Drivers Who Know the Approach Road — Not Just NH16
Any driver can follow NH16 to Contai. The value at Tajpur specifically is a driver who knows the exact turn-off from NH16 near Contai, the correct coastal road through the fishing villages, and the parking at the beach. Our drivers know Tajpur's approach precisely — avoiding the backtracking that costs most unfamiliar drivers 30 to 45 minutes on this destination.
Transparent Pricing — All NH16 Tolls Included
Every car rental quote from Barakah Travels for Kolkata to Tajpur includes all toll charges on NH16, fuel, parking, and driver allowance. One price, final — no toll additions, no fuel surcharges, no parking fees at the beach.
Multi-Beach Flexibility Built Into the Package
With a private car from Barakah Travels, Mandarmani (15 km), Shankarpur (10 km), and Digha (25 km) are all accessible from Tajpur within your km package. No renegotiating with the driver at the beach, no extra-charge surprises for coastal circuit extensions.
Door-to-Door Pickup from Anywhere in Kolkata
Our drivers come to your exact location in Kolkata or Howrah — home, hotel, office, or any landmark. You tell us the pickup address, the driver arrives on time, and the Tajpur trip starts at your door.
Fully Insured, Well-Maintained Vehicles
Every car is comprehensively insured and regularly serviced. The coastal approach road to Tajpur is in good condition but narrower than NH16 — we send a properly maintained vehicle, not a car that is going to have issues on the final approach.
About Tajpur Beach
Tajpur is a small, largely undeveloped beach village on the Bay of Bengal in East Midnapore district — sitting approximately midway between Mandarmani (15 km) and Digha (25 km) on the West Bengal coast. Located about 180 km from Kolkata via NH16, Tajpur has emerged as the preferred beach destination for travellers who want the West Bengal coast experience without the commercial density of Digha or the resort-heavy character of Mandarmani. The beach is wide, casuarina-fringed, and genuinely quiet — even on weekends that would see Digha completely packed.

star Destination Highlights
routeRoute: Kolkata → Tajpur Beach
The Kolkata to Tajpur route follows NH16 — the same well-maintained 4-lane highway used for Digha and Mandarmani — all the way to the Contai area at 145 km, after which a turn-off leads toward the coast via a narrow 15 km village and coastal road to Tajpur Beach. The NH16 section is smooth, fast, and adequate for all vehicle types from sedans to 45-seater buses. The approach road from the highway to Tajpur is narrower — a 2-lane coastal road through fishing villages and casuarina groves — but fully motorable for all vehicles. The key navigational challenge is the turn-off itself, which is not prominently signed on NH16. Our drivers know this turn precisely. The overall drive from Kolkata takes 4 to 4.5 hours in normal conditions — almost identical to Digha — making Tajpur practical for both day trips and overnight stays.

Landmarks on the Way
Best Time to Visit Tajpur Beach
Peak Season
October to February
18°C to 30°C
The best time to visit Tajpur. Cool, dry weather, calm sea at low tide, and clear skies make beach camping and extended beach time genuinely pleasant. Tajpur remains noticeably less crowded than Digha and Mandarmani even during peak season — which is the point. Book vehicles 2 to 3 weeks in advance for long weekends in this window.
Avoid / Monsoon
June to September
Monsoon brings rough seas and periodic beach closures. The approach road to Tajpur can become difficult in heavy rain. Most beach camps close during monsoon. Not recommended for group trips during this window.
