This northern stretch of the world's longest unbroken sea beach presents a unique opportunity to connect with the natural beauty and local culture of coastal Bangladesh. As you venture north from the airport, the landscape gradually transforms.

The absence of large-scale development allows for a more intimate connection with nature.
