Kuakata, locally known as Sagar
Kannya (Daughter of Sea) is a rare scenic spot located on the southernmost tip
of Bangladesh .
Kuakata in Latachapli Union under Kalapara Police Station of Patuakhali
district is about 30 km in length and 6 km in breadth. It is 70 km from
Patuakhali district headquarters and 320 km from Dhaka .
An excellent combination of the picturesque natural beauty sandy beaches, blue
sky and the shimmering expanse of water of the bay of Bengal and the evergreen
forest makes Kuakata a much sought after tourist destination.
The name Kuakata takes its origin
from the story of ‘Kua’ - or well –dug on the seashore by the early Rakhaine
settlers for collecting drinking water. The Rakhanies had landed on Kuakata
coast after being expelled from Arakan by the Mughals. Following the first
well, it became a traditional to dig wells in the neighborhood of Rakhaine
homeless for fresh water supply.
Kuakata is one of the unique
spots which allow a visitor to watch both the sunrise and the sunset from the
beach. That perhaps makes Kuakata one of the world’s most attractive beaches.
The long and wide beach at Kuakata has a typical natural setting. The sandy beach
slopes gently into the Bay and bathing there is as pleasant as is swimming or
diving.
Kuakata is truly a virgin beach
and sanctuary for migratory winter birds. Fishing boats plying in the Bay of
Bengal with colorful sails, surfing waves and the lines of coconut trees add to
the vibrant colors of Kuakata. The indigenous culture of the Rakhaine community
and hundred year old Buddhist temples indicate the age-old tradition and
cultural heritage of this area.
Kuakata is also a holy land for
the Hindus and Buddhists. Each year thousands of devotees come here to attend
the festivals Rash Purnima and Maghi Purnima. On these two days, pilgrims take
holy nath and enjoy going to the traditional fairs.
