Travel to the Hidden Island in the Bay of Bengal
There is a hidden island in Bangladesh’s blue waters of the Bay of Bengal. This island is submerged underwater for most of the year.
Migratory birds and red crabs inhabit this island, while speckled sandbanks are also covered by blue water on either side. It appears to be a magical island from a distance and remains unknown to many. It can be compared to Saint Martin, about 40 kilometers from the coast of Kuakata. The island is only visible during the winter and dry season when the water level decreases. Occasionally, fishermen visit this uninhabited island, but it is quite rare.
I traveled to this island from Barguna in the middle of the Bay of Bengal with some fishermen. The journey on their fishing trawler was thrilling, and upon reaching the island, it felt like stepping onto a heavenly shore.
