If you want a quiet escape by the sea without traveling too far from Kolkata, this is the trip for you. Stay at our Mayer Bari homestay near Bakkhali and spend your days between two of the loveliest beaches in South Bengal. It is the kind of slow, restful holiday that the coast does best.
Bakkhali beach stretches for kilometers along the Bay of Bengal, with soft white sand and rare views of both the sunrise and the sunset from the same shore. Climb the watchtower for a wide look over the sea and the mangroves, take long walks along the water, and watch the fishing boats come and go.
A short ride away lies Henry's Island, one of the most peaceful and untouched beaches in the area. You walk through a stretch of mangrove forest and across a small bamboo bridge before the beach opens up in front of you. Look out for the red crabs scattered across the sand and the many birds that make the mangroves their home.
Our homestay keeps you close to both spots, with comfortable rooms, home-cooked Bengali meals, and the warmth of staying with people who know the area inside out. We can guide you on timings, tides, and the best way to see each place.
This package suits couples, families, and small groups looking for a relaxed weekend by the sea. The best months to visit are October to March, when the weather along the coast is at its most pleasant.
