For travelers who want a little more of the wild side of the coast, this package adds a boat trip to Jambudwip to the beaches of Bakkhali and Henry's Island. Stay at our Mayer Bari homestay near Bakkhali and explore three very different faces of the sea over a relaxed few days.
Start with Bakkhali beach, with its long white sand shoreline, gentle waves, and lovely sunrise and sunset views. Spend time at the watchtower and on slow beach walks. Then head to Henry's Island, where a mangrove trail and a small bamboo bridge lead you to a quiet, pristine beach dotted with red crabs and full of birdsong.
The highlight of this package is Jambudwip, a small uninhabited island reached by boat from the Frasergunj side. It is covered in mangrove forest and is a haven for birds, with the surrounding waters long used as fishing grounds. The boat ride itself, weaving past the mangroves, is part of the experience. Access depends on the tide, so we help you plan the timing.
Back at the homestay, you return to comfortable rooms and home-cooked Bengali food, with local guidance on how to make the most of each day.
This trip suits nature lovers, families, and small groups. The best season is October to March, when the boat trips and beach walks are most enjoyable.
