Kuakata: Rare beauty spot of sunrise and sunset
A large scenic beauty spot on the southernmost tip of Bangladesh in the district of Patuakhali. It has a wide sandy beach from where one can get the unique opportunity of seeing both the sunrise and sunsetting. Kuakata is truly a virgin beach-a sanctuary for migratory winter birds, a series of coconut trees, sandy beach of blue bay, a feast for the eye. The unique custom and costumes of the ‘Rakhyne' tribal families and Buddhist Temple of about hundred years old indicate the ancient tradition and cultural heritage.
