The Dining Chair Traveller – Beaches

We’re kicking off our Year of the Dining Chair Traveller with a summer season visit to two of the Indian subcontinent’s most famous beaches. On the west coast we’re sampling the famous food stalls of Mumbai’s Chowpatty Beach and in the east, on the Asian mainland the 150 kilometre-long beach at Cox’s Bazar in the Chittagong province of Bangladesh.

We hope you will enjoy them as much as we did.
