As the golden hues of dusk settle over the horizon, thousands of tourists gather at Kakra Beach in Cox’s Bazar with their loved ones or families to enjoy the serene evening. This relatively quiet beach point is quickly gaining popularity among tourists seeking peace, natural beauty, and a unique coastal experience. What sets this spot apart is the scenic road that winds through a lush jhau forest, leading to a shoreline where countless red crabs scurry across the sand. Every afternoon, the number of tourists surges as people come to witness the playful dance of the crabs and the tranquil beauty of the beach.
