Good to know

Nijhum Dwip has been declared as a reserved sanctuary by the Bangladesh government. The island as a whole is a resource for Bangladesh, so we request you not to throw the waste or plastic thing anywhere. Wait for the dustbin. 

Hunting on this island is prohibited. Bangladesh forest department and local people are very much concerned about it. 

The best time to see the birds are hightide. During the high tide, the birds come closer to the land area otherwise it is tough to see then walking through the deep muddy ways. 

Traveling during summer you need to check the weather report before you travel. You have to be very much brave at this time to cross the Hatia Channel due to the rough waves in the river.  

This tour is designed only for the people who are physically fit as this tour is very much time consuming and laborious. So, we recommend avoiding this tour if there is a child/old person with you. 

Please do not beak any branches of the tree without any reason as these hand reach branches are the food for the deer. And do not disturb the birds as they have made the environment clean and heavenly. 

There is no electricity in the Nijhum Dwip. The hotel you will stay you will find the electricity run by the generator but the whole island depends on solar energy. There is a place in Namar Bazar you may find some shop who can recharge your device on payment but better to save power in your device and carry an extra power bank. 

Only Grameen phone and Robi has the mobile network service in Nijhum Dwip.
