Sunderbans National Park (West Bengal)

 Sunderbans at Dusk Hour Sunderbans National Park is an unworldly setup of wetlands, mangroves, ghost stories, mudflats, crocodiles, seven rivers, 64 plant species and over 270 Royal Bengal tigers (2011 census). Sixty kilometres from the nearest town of Gosaba, the Park spreads over 500 sq kms and is best travelled not on an elephant or in a jeep, but in a boat. Choose a luxury launch like M.V. Chitrarekha or M.V. Madhukar and start your boat safari in a network of channels over the delta. The experience of two unmoving eyes under water, staring at your boat, ready to attack or abandon at the slightest threat, is exclusive to Sunderbans National Park. After your boat safari, plan a day or two to visit the crocodile breeding farm of Bharatpur, Haliday Island (for its barking deer), the Burridabri Tiger project and the Sajankhali
