Dobanki Watch Tower is a key attraction within the Sundarbans, offering visitors a secure and elevated platform to experience the forest's biodiversity. The tower is part of the Dobanki Camp, which also features a fenced 496-meter-long canopy walk, providing a unique perspective of the forest from above and increasing the chances of spotting wildlife without disturbing their environment. The Sundarbans themselves are a vast mangrove forest, one of the largest in the world, straddling the delta of the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna rivers on the Bay of Bengal. This unique ecosystem is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including the iconic Royal Bengal tiger, as well as numerous species of birds, reptiles, and fish. The area is known for its intricate network of tidal waterways, small islands, and mudflats. Visiting Dobanki Watch Tower offers an immersive experience into the heart of the Sundarbans. From the tower, you might spot herds of deer grazing in the grasslands, monkeys swinging through the trees, or even a glimpse of a Bengal tiger prowling through the undergrowth. The watch tower and canopy walk provide excellent opportunities for photography and wildlife observation. The best time to visit is during the cooler months (October to February) when the weather is more pleasant and wildlife is easier to spot.
