Enter the mangroves with care
The Sundarbans is a tidal mangrove landscape experienced by boat, with creeks, forest stations, wildlife habitat, and long stretches where the journey itself is the focus. It requires more planning than a conventional city tour.
Routes depend on permits, departure point, vessel, weather, tides, and trip length. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, so a good plan values the entire ecosystem and the communities connected to it.
