Sundarbans, renowned for its delta formation with approximately 100 islands, 53 of which are designated as jungle areas, presents a unique ecosystem. The islands are interspersed with creeks, ranging from narrow streams to expansive river formations, such as the notable five-river confluence covered by many tours. The tidal nature of these creeks, filling up during high tide and drying up during low tide, necessitates the use of marine vehicles for navigation in this delta region. The Sundarban National Park comprises two distinct zones: the core area, off-limits to tourists for conservation purposes, and the buffer areas, accessible for wildlife sightings. Additionally, there are inhabited islands in the Sundarbans with basic living conditions, where villagers use simple mechanized country boats for short-distance travel.
For tourists, the experience is markedly different. Daytime is predominantly spent cruising through backwaters, exploring watch towers, and navigating narrow creeks. Tourist boats are fully equipped with all the necessities for a comfortable journey. These boats feature night-stay options with bunk beds, kitchens, and toilets in the lower deck, while the upper deck serves as a lounging area. This elevated space provides an ideal vantage point to admire the forests, enjoy the cool breeze, and make the most of the Sundarbans experience. For those seeking a more luxurious stay, Sundarbans AC Houseboats offer additional amenities, ensuring a memorable visit to this unique delta region.
