Gopalpur on sea , a small town of Fishermen was an  important trading point during British reign. The place is famous for the sea beach of Bay of Bengal. The presence of old light house, ruins of old jetty depicts the past maritime glory of Gopalpur. The old jetties were renovated by Govt. of Odisha in 1970 to revive the past glory.

And once it is completed, it will become an important port of south Odisha.
