Travel Tips and Advice

Essentials to Pack: Make sure to pack lightweight, breathable clothing suitable for the sun, along with swimwear for beach days. Don’t forget sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses to protect against the sun. A beach mat or a towel is essential for lounging, and a waterproof bag will keep your valuables safe from the sand and sea.

Optimal Visiting Seasons: Plan your trip between November and March when the weather is cooler and drier. Visiting early in the day can help you avoid the midday heat and enjoy the serene beauty of the beach.

Respect Local Customs: While on the beach, swimwear is acceptable, but it’s advisable to cover up with a sarong or a light cover-up when leaving the beach area to respect local cultural norms.

Culinary Delights: Indulge in local seafood delicacies such as grilled lobster and fried shrimp from beachside stalls. Carry bottled water to stay hydrated as you explore the area.

Safety First: Always swim in designated safe areas and be cautious of strong currents. It’s best to avoid swimming alone and to keep a close eye on children.

Payment Readiness: While many vendors prefer cash, some may accept mobile payments, so it’s wise to have both options available for convenience.

Weather Preparedness: Check the weather forecast before your trip. Be prepared for sudden weather changes, especially during the monsoon season, which can bring unpredictable conditions.

Activities to Experience: Enjoy the scenic Marine Drive, explore nearby attractions like Himchari Waterfall, and visit the tranquil Inani Beach. For adventure seekers, activities such as jet skiing, kayaking, and parasailing are must-tries.

Cultural Exploration: Visit the Ramu Buddha Temple and the Burmese Market for an enriching cultural experience. The market offers unique souvenirs and insight into local craftsmanship.

Accommodation Choices: Choose from luxury resorts such as Sayeman Beach Resort or opt for cozy stays like Mermaid Beach Resort, which offer unique experiences and spectacular views.

Enjoy your escape to Cox’s Bazar Beach, where every moment is a chance to connect with nature and local culture.

    Longest Seabeach in the world
    Bangladesh is a beautiful country. The modern Cox’s Bazar derives its name from Captain Hiram Cox, an officer of the British East India Company. He died in 1799, to commemorate his role in rehabilitation work; a market was established and named Cox’s Bazar after him.
    Cox’s Bazar Town was constituted in 1869; eventually as municipality in 1989. It is located 150 km (93 mi) south of the industrial port of Chittagong. Population of Cox’s Bazar is about 51,918. Cox’s Bazar is connected by road and air with Chittagong. Luxurious bus services are available to visit Cox’s Bazar.
    Cox’s Bazar is a city, a fishing port, tourism centre and district headquarters in Bangladesh. The beach in Cox’s Bazar is sandy and has a gentle slope; with a unbroken length of 120 km (75 mi), it is one of the longest sea beaches in the world. At high tide the beach is 200 metres (660 ft) wide and at low tide it is 400 metres (1,300 ft) wide on average. Quicksand is a danger during ebb tide
    Today, Cox’s Bazar is very much popular to the tourist’s and one of the most-visited tourist destinations in Bangladesh. Cox’s Bazar town is a health resort. But it is famous mostly for its long natural sandy beach. Panorama of Cox’s Bazar in the early morning: clouds on a blue sky, still water and forest in the distance. Showering on sea water, high waves are hitting sea shore & people are enjoying much with friends & family. Sunset is a mind blowing prior to the evening; people love to watch the sunset from the beach as it presents an awesome serene sight for the viewers. Early morning walking alongside the water to enjoy Sunrise. Lot of peoples were enjoying there…. night beach is really cool.
    The beach is the main attraction of the town. There are several 3 star and 5 star hotels and budgeted hotels are available, affordable prices both in rooms as well as Food & Beverages for the tourist’s to enjoy. Visitors in other hotels can visit the Laboni beach or Kolatoli beach point which is the area of the beach closest to the town. Best time to visit in winter season.
    Other than the beach there are several places of interest near the town which can easily be visited from town centre.
    • Himchari National Park : Himchari is located just south of the Cox’s Bazar town. It consists of lush tropical rain forest, grasslands and trees, and features a number of waterfalls, the biggest of which cascades down toward the sandy, sun-drenched beach.
    • Inani Beach Inani is a stony beach near Cox’s Bazar. Inani Beach is an 18-kilometre-long sea beach in Ukhia Upazila of Cox’s Bazar District, Bangladesh. It has a lot of coral stones, which are very sharp. These coral stones look black and green, and they are found in summer or rainy seasons.
    Bangladesh Tourist Police unit is deployed to protect local and foreign tourist’s better, as well as to look after the nature and wildlife in the tourist spots of Cox’s Bazar.

    The best place to visit, longest Sea beach in the World! 2 popular Beaches in the town area are: Sugandha and Labony. Another amazing beach is Inani, which is 33Km from Cox’s Bazar.

    Lots of hotels and Restaurants, Last part of November, December, January and February are the most crowded time here, So book your seat before going there. If you love calm environment avoid those months.

    Weather is soothing. Love to go here every year with my family.

    Although poorly given form in many places, the municipality here doesn’t know how to develop things, the beach is long, with nice sand and in general safe. There are many places where you can go without tourists, and swimming can be done almost anywhere. Inani Beach is to be avoided as it is too popular
