Bali Island Resort, Sunderbans
About Bali Island Resort, SunderbansSunderbans, world's largest delta coveredby mangrove forest and vast saline mudflats, is situated in the lower end of the Ganjetic West Bengal. A land of some 55 tiny islands, crisscrossed by innumerable tributaries of Ganga, that was once infested by Arakanese and Portuguese pirates is now the abode of varied flora and fauna population. The only mangrove tiger land of India where 70% is under saline water makes the life of commoners, mostly honey-catchers, prawn-catchers and fishermen very difficult. This mangrove forest has about 64 plant species which alone covers 90% of Indian mangrove varieties and 60% of the total mangrove forest area of the country.
