Chilika Museum

Do visit this museum if you are visiting Chilika Lake.

Its just beside the way to go for Boat Ride.

Entry fee is only 10 rupees but you get you know Chilika Lake on a deeper level.

There is also a Dolphin Park beside the Museum for kids.

I was amazed to know that a man made water mouth had to be developed to maintain Salinity of Lake so that its eco system is not damaged

Good museum with a detailed history about Chilka Lake (it's a Lagoon BTW). Explained models of laye restoration and conversion was shown here and you can find the preserved bodies of all the species found in the lake. The preservation room is a bit smelly, some jars are not properly sealed and that the reason of the strong smell.

It's a small museum for mostly different Chilka lake creatures and Culture surrounding the lake. The show is also informative for interested people. The preserved animals & skeleton of dolphins is also one of the attractions for this place.

A place to know about water species.

The museum is situated just beside the Chilika Ecopark and exactly opposite to the Satpada Boating Office. People who are visiting Chilka Lake, this is a must visit place for them. Statues of various sea creatures, local tribal people living on this coastal area and their lifestyle are on display here. Also, there is a 15 minutes audio-visual documentary displayed at the auditorium, which is a must watch. The documentary tells us to respect marine creatures and keep a balance between us and them.

If you visit the place you get the idea about the lake and everything. This is the great place for children. There is a vedio show. The show is very important for tourist.
