Tour Location

Kuakata is a beach town located in the southwestern part of Bangladesh, in the Patuakhali district. It is situated on the eastern end of the Bay of Bengal and is famous for its panoramic sea views, unique feature of witnessing both sunrise and sunset over the sea, and the rich culture of the local indigenous communities. Kuakata is about 320 km away from the capital city of Dhaka and can be accessed by road, waterways, and air (nearest airport is in Barisal, which is about 70 km away from Kuakata).

History of the City

The history of Kuakata can be traced back to the 18th century when the Rakhine (or Arakanese) people from Myanmar (Burma) migrated to this region and settled here. These people brought with them their culture and traditions, which are still evident in the local lifestyle and practices. The name "Kuakata" is believed to have originated from the word "Kua", which means "well", and "kata", which means "dug". According to a legend, a well was dug by the Rakhine people in Kuakata, which is still in use today. During the British colonial period, Kuakata became a popular beach resort for the British officials, and many bungalows were built along the coast. After the partition of India in 1947, Kuakata became a part of East Pakistan (present-day Bangladesh) and continued to attract tourists from all over the country. In recent years, Kuakata has gained international recognition as a tourist destination, and efforts are being made to promote sustainable tourism in the region. Today, Kuakata is not only famous for its beautiful beach and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, but also for the rich cultural heritage of the Rakhine people and their unique lifestyle. The local economy is primarily based on fishing, agriculture, and tourism.
