While the beach is a clean and empty one, the temple is full of a mela kind of atmosphere with way too many people. Am not sure if going very early would help.
There are mammoth animal entrances on 
three sides, lovely intricate carvings, including some with great stories ( a pining wife at a door, a family bidding goodbye to the father, a giraffe in Orissa of those days, heating with a fire between legs as a cure for infertility) and lots of suggestive erotica.

The 12 wheels are in full glory with the gap between the spokes representing 3hrs and therefore in total 24 hrs.
The OTDC is a clean and nice place to refresh and eat and even stay.

I guess we had the same guide :-) his name escapes me.
An elderly man who was at ease in both English and Hindi and had an umbrella handy for the kids ??
The same guy !
In the top picture you have, I see zen like serenity reflected in Anush's face..lovely.
The heating with fire between the legs is to make the area sterile after childbirth and not a cure for infertility. Back in those days this was a very common technique before antibiotics were given orally.
