Do

Swimming and surfing:Swimming here will be a great experience but be careful about the waves and low tide even if you are good swimmer. Look at the life saving watch tower and be sure that the “Green Flag” is hoisted instead of “Red Flag”. The hotel won’t object if you walk through the lobby with your wet body but don’t forget to take shower at the designated place.

Having Green coconut and bananas: You can find plenty of green coconuts and bananas here on the beach and they are pretty cheap. So sid idly on the sandy beach and have green coconut juice and bananas and enjoy your tropical holiday. Just don’t throw the coconut shell or banana peel here and there on the beach. Though a mobile phone company conducts the operation of cleaning the beach in every hour in their social responsibility, it’s our duty to keep the beach neat and clean.

Surfing: This beach has surfing facilities. A local man named Jafar Alam established surf club and schools with the help of some of his American friends. Though their primary goal is to teach the Bangladeshis how to surf, they loan their equipments of surfing to any traveler passing trough.

Shopping:

Jewelleries and other show pieces made of sea shells are very popular among the tourists. There are many shops on the sea beach who sell this attractive items but before purchasing them think twice because by purchasing them you’ll encourage a non-eco friendly practice. From the Burmese Market you can buy tradition Burmese dresses and fabrics. Here in some stores you’ll find pearl jewelleries. You can also collect some local beauty products, hand woven garments and bed sheets among many other things. Dried fishes can be bought from the main market of Cox’s Bazar. You can also buy it from the shops near your hotel but it’s better to collect from the main market because the price is cheap in the main market.

Food:

Western, Thai, Chinese and continental foods are available in major hotels and restaurants. Various types of local dishes such as Rezala, Korma, mutton, beef, chicken, different types of kababs, polao, biriyani, and khichuri are also very popular. Seafood is most popular here. Different types of fishes, prawns, lobsters, squid, octopus are available here in reasonable restaurants and roadside food chains. If you are a food connoisseur, then you shouldn’t miss fresh vetki, smoked hilsa fish, chingri malaikari and prawn dopyaza here.

Drink:

Tea, lassi, green coconut water and different types of soft drinks are available in beach areas. Hard drinks are also available in some selected hotels and restaurants but on Friday it’s prohibited to drink in public places. 

Where to Stay:  

Here you will find different types of Hotels and Motels to stay. Usually these hotels are not far from the beach. From some of them you will able to enjoy the panoramic view of the Bay of Bengal.
