Think you are flying above the Barossa. Ballooning is the most romantic form of transportation, from the traditional natural fiber basket to the champagne breakfast. Balloon flying in the sunrise, wine tasting in the hours of daylight. This journey is very enjoyable. For pumping up the balloon its takes about half an hour after that, enjoy the experiment of flying with the help of balloon. You can fly with the breeze for approximately an hour which gives you abundance of time to take photos and just enjoy the sense of freedom traveling with the breeze. This experience is awesome. 
This is an amazing experience that you will never forget!

World's longest natural sandy sea beach.

 

World's longest natural sandy sea beach:

 

Bangladesh is a child of natural beauty. Huge number of travelers visit this country every year. Today I introduce the longest see beach in the world. That is Cox's Bazar. It is an unbroken 125 km sandy sea beach with a gentle slope. It is situated 150 km south of the industrial port Chittagong.The beach is the main attraction of the town. Larger hotels provide exclusive beach side area with accessories for the hotel guests. Visitors in other hotels visit the Laboni beach which is the area of the beach closest to the town. Other than the beach there are several places of interest near the town which can easily be visited from town center.Other attractions sides near

Cox's Bazar Maheshkhali. Sonadia Island,TeknafSt. Martin's Island .Chakaria,Bandarban and angamati.The rise & fall of the tide is not great here; so, it is a better place for sea-bathing. However, the shark free warm waters are good for swimming & bathing. On the other hand, the sandy beaches offer sun-bathing opportunity.


Cox's Bazar


Best Time to Visit:


The best time to visit here is at sunrise and sunset while the sand changes colors.

Activities:


Watching the sun set; it is fabulous and everybody watches it. Best place for capturing photos.

Hazard:

 
If you are a foreigner, everybody would want to talk to you. They also have their photo taken with you. It is a lit-bit annoying. However, it is a great way to get opportunity to talk to local people and know their culture and tradition. If you are in bikini or western dress, locals’ eye may embarrass you.

How to reach Cox's Bazar :


About 154 km. from chittagong. Cox's Baza is connected by a well built highway. There are Dhaka – Chittagong- Cox's Baza both ways binman [Bangladesh Airlines] flights 3days a week. There are good number of buses are available from Dhaka.

Where to stay :


Hotels and motels are avail available here. Bangladesh Tourism corporation arrange good accommodation for visitors. 

In the season of winter, it is hard to get an accommodation in the hotels if booking is not made earlier. If you are really adventurous and want to enjoy the wildness and madness of the ruff and tuff Sea you can come to Cox's bazar in the month of mid April, Sea continue its wildness till August; and its even more exotic if you come to Cox's Bazar in the time of depression of the Sea.
