ABOUT THE PLACE

Kaikhali, a small land adjoining Mohana where Matla and Nimaniya rivers flow in to the Bay of Bengal, abounds in a variety of trees such as Garan, Golappata, Hogla, Sundri, etc. You may take the motor boat and cruise on the Matla River. A shimmering full moon night or the first rays of the sun splashed across the eastern sky, envelopes the Matla with celestial beauty.
