Department of Lighthouse and Lightship under the Ministry of Shipping has decided to convert 15 out of 182 lighthouses in India into tourism spots as the first phase of ‘development of lighthouses for tourism’ project.
Lighthouses in Odisha which are under this project are Gopalpur-on-Sea, Chandrabhaga and False Point in Jagatsinghpur district near Paradip port.
Further, Union Tourism Ministry also wants to make the lighthouses more appealing by renovating the surroundings with landscape, conservation work, developing comforts for visitors, solar power electrification and other fun activities for the tourists.
