Description

Experience the thrill of viewing otters in their natural habitat. Bangladesh’s water basins provide an ideal habitat for these active critters, and your otter fishing trip provides a unique opportunity to observe their activities up close.

We will drive to and from Otter fishing village by a reserved vehicle. It will be a beautiful journey through beautiful landscapes and the newly built Padma Bridge on the Ganges (Padma) River. The excellent highway in Bangladesh ensures a comfortable journey. Your guide will invite you for a traditional lunch with the otter fishing family, freshly prepared and delicious. Embark on a country boat and follow the otter fishing activities from a distance. That allows you to capture all frames the way you want. Not only the otter fishing, serene nature, and villages of the river banks, but people and their daily activities take this trip to the next level. Lush greenery, vibrant birdlife, and the gentle lapping of water against the boat create an ambiance of calmness and relaxation.

Do not hesitate to give it a try to learn their traditional fishing techniques, passed down through generations, and gain insights into the intimate relationship between otters and fishermen. Your guide will explain and make sure everything goes right. No worries, you are in the right hands.

Please appreciate sustainable fishing practices that respect the delicate balance of the aquatic ecosystem. Leave no trace behind, and ensure the well-being of the otters and their habitat.

Because of the comfortable road journey, we can easily make a day trip to the otter fishing village from Dhaka and Khulna. We can also extend a day here, combined with an overnight stay on a specially built houseboat on the Chitra River. Kisti offers basic facilities but has everything for your one-night comfort. A backwater cruise on the Chitra River is fabulous, and a visit to S M Sultan‘s Art Gallery will enrich your knowledge about rural art and culture. Sultan’s work dives into social topics, providing light on poverty, inequality, and the human condition. His art reflects society, encouraging introspection and change. Sultan’s art inspires us to consider the nature of mankind and our responsibility to one another.
