A
good combination of fun and religious visit is Ganga Sagar, the
uncrowded, unspoilt beach on the estuary of the mighty Ganges. Situated
on an island in the Sunderbans, Ganga Sagar is a lovely destination
where culture and religion mingle in peace. With the mild winter
of gangetic West Bengal, the season to continues all year round.
However, the best time of the year is July to March.
How to reach
Ganga Sagar can be approached from Calcutta either by road and then
by a vessel, or by chartered luxury vessels starting from Namkhana
& Calcutta.
