20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Sonneratia couple enjoying the sunset

Guliakhali sea beach is situated at Muradpur, Sitakunda in Chittagong Division, Bangladesh. It is 5 kilometers from Sitakunda town. Nature has spared no effort in beautifying the endlessly beautiful Guliakhali Sea Beach. The seawater on one side and the Sonneratia forest on the other side make this sea beach unique. The root of the Sonneratia tree can be seen around the canal that runs through the Sonneratia forest, this forest goes far into the sea. Environments like swamp and mangrove forests can be found here. Even though the sea does not have so many waves or roars, the empty beach of this quiet environment will catch you in a different way.
