It is a virgin forest which until recently owed nothing to human endeavour and yet nature has laid it out with as much care as a planned pleasure ground. For miles and miles, the lofty treetops form an unbroken canopy, while nearer the ground, works of high and ebb-tide marked on the soil and tree trunks and the many varieties of the natural mangrove forest have much to offer to an inquisitive visitor. Here land and water meet in many novel fashions.
Wild life presents many a spectacle.
No wonder, you may come across a Royal Bengal Tiger swimming across the streams or the crocodiles basking on the river banks. Keora leaves from above for sumptuous meal for the former. For the botanist, the lover of nature, the poet and the painter this land provides a variety of wonders for which they all crave. The Sundarbans is a cluster of islands with an approximate area of 3600 sq. It's beauty lies in its unique natural surrounding.
