Sundarban Tiger Camp

Sundarban Tiger Camp

Sunderbans National Park
, West Bengal
, India

Located on Dayapur Island on the banks of the River Pitchkhali opposite the mangrove reserve, this camp is a comfortable resort for exploring the region’s fascinating mangrove forests, myriad islands and fascinating wildlife. The island has no electricity and fresh water so the lodge has provided ample quantities through rainwater harvesting and solar energy. A range of rooms cater to your comfort and budget needs each individually hand painted with pictures of the area’s flora and fauna.

Established in 2004, Sundarban Tiger Camp started as a tented camp which gave it its name. Today the camp offers a unique retreat in a pristine natural setting.
