Known for its picturesque beaches, mangrove creeks, and tropical forests, this small town brings a unique blend of cultures due to its historical settlement by immigrants from Myanmar, East Pakistan, and ex-convicts. Among its attractions, the Karmatang Beach is a well-known turtle nesting ground. The mangrove-lined shores of Avis Island and Interview Island offer tranquility and an exquisite natural experience, making them popular spots for picnics and day trips. The local culture reflects a mix of traditional Indian and Southeast Asian influences. The town serves as an entry point for various smaller islands and beaches in the region.
