At Sundarban Anjali Travels, we think travel is more than just visiting places. It’s about culture, community & of course, food. Join us for the Sundarban Hilsa Festival—one of the most celebrated events here!
Every year, during monsoon, we offer a special trip that combines the wild beauty of the Sundarbans with the taste of Bengal’s favorite fish—Hilsa (Ilish).
What is the Sundarban Hilsa Festival?
The Hilsa Festival is all about celebrating the fresh Hilsa fish washing up in Bengal’s rivers. Known as the “King of Fish”, it’s loved for its tender meat & tasty flavor. Sundarbans, with tidal waters and fishing villages, becomes a top spot for fans of Hilsa around this time.
Sundarban Anjali Travels organizes this fun-filled fest from July to September. It’s about food, fun, adventure & culture—an experience you won’t forget.
