The one & only coral reefs of the world. you can enjoy your holiday in this island which is locally known as "NarikelZinjera" as well as "CheraDip". This lonely planet is the Beauty Queen of the Bay of Bengal.
Reason of becoming the most attracting and fascinating tour place:
Saint martin island of Bangladesh, in Chittagong Division is the one & only coral island of the country. This coral island is also known as the Narikelzinjera to the local peoples because of having a lots of coconut trees. This island is the last southern part of our country and is on the visage of the Naf river.This island situated between 20 degrees 34 minute and

Best time to visit Saint martin Island:
You need to know the weather forecast before planning the tour. Because the weather is most important for enjoying this fabulous beauty of the island. For this reason, March to July is popularly known as the Off Season to the tourist because in this time our country face several Cyclone. So it can be risky however some tourists visit at this time. I personally forbid you to visit at this time. You can go to the island November to February because at this time the island weather is the best to enjoy its natural beauty.
The way to go Saint Martin's island:
You have to reach Teknaf, Cox's Bazar at first. Then you can go Saint Martins Island through ship.
Several bus services e.g. Hanif, Shayamoli, Unique and
Saint Martin Poribahan, leave Dhaka to Saint Martin around 7.30 pm to 8.30 pm. You can go to Chattogram through Train then from Chattogram you can visit Teknaf. There are several flight service also. So you can use any of them to reach Teknaf.
From Teknaf you can go to the island through Ship. Some people use Trollar which seems risky to me. The ship started its journey at 9:30 sharp so you need to reach before this time. The ship again started its journey 3:30 pm from the island for the Teknaf.
