It is beautiful with sea-green water, with exotic debris of stone looked like a cave. The tree added more beauty to the seashore with green touch. A very calm beach in early morning and evening when the tide is low. You need to be very cautious about your steps. The surface is full with uneven and hard dead corals. You can see starfish, live corals, and if lucky other fishes.
One can see this formation only during the low tides. There is a small trek of around 300-400 meters to reach this location. A nice adventure.
The Howrah Bridge or Natural Bridge is situated on a bank of dead corals. The bridge is a natural formation but the area around the bridge has excellent live aquatic creatures like star fish, sea cucumber etc.. Though a bit difficult to approach over the dead coral rocks, it is worth the effort as very few places allow one to see live creatures moving around.
A natural bridge made by rocks. Go when it is a low tide, otherwise the way to reach is between stones which have very sharp edges. We went in a high tide and it was nothing short of a trekk for us
Howrah bridge was started 71 years back in 1943. It's built on Hooghly river and connects howrah to Kolkata. It's made full of steel and carries a huge huge traffic load in a daily basis. Nothing great to particularly go and watch it as lot of pollution is there on the bridge due to heavy traffic load. So if you crosses it in the car then also it's fine to watch.
Howrah bridge...really ???!!! never heard of the name in Neil island.its located on Laxmanpur bridge and they call it the Natural bridge as far as i know. anyway its a nice place and such natural formations are really exciting,i am quite amused at the critical reviews here.if you are not a nature lover you have nothing to see in neil island except for water sports activities in bharatpur beach...and if you do love nature then this is a great place for you.enjoy ur stay at Neil Island !!!
And crowded in tourist season. Neil has much better places for solitude and observation. I used a bicycle to go to the sight and was pleasantly surprised at the journey and the road.
This is an amazing creation of nature worth a visit at Neil Island.You too book a Car to drive you to the location.You need to have a guide you can direct you to the location and help you return back on time.Once the water level rises on tide , it impossible to reach the location.
This natural rock formation looks awesome in good light. Go there in the morning when there is low light. You will walk across a huge bed of corals to reach it. You will also get to see a lot of marine life, including live corals. This is undoubetedly best attraction of Neil.
I didn't like the place. After a fairly dangerous path we reached the Howrah Bridge, stared it for a minute or so and headed back through that dangerous path again. No point in going to this place.
