Due to the corona virus infection in the past two years, the Hilsa festival was not so enthusiastic, but since last year, tourists are again flocking to the Hilsa festival. But this time, enough hilsa of standard size has accumulated in the fair.

Hilsa has not been seen like that in the last few years. As a result, tourists flocked to Sundarbans to enjoy the fun of the Hilsa festival during this full monsoon, but they remained practically deprived of the taste of Hilsa. Tourist traders also somehow calmed down the tourists with little hilsa.

However, since the beginning of the season, there is a lot of hilsa. In addition, the Hilsa festival of Sundarbans has been gathered as Pellai size hilsa has also been caught. On the one hand, entrepreneurs are buying hilsa for tourists from Diamond Harbour, Kakdwip, as well as hilsa from the hilsa trawlers that enter in Bharakhali.

A record number of tourists are still being observed around the Hilsa festival this year. Tourists are coming to Sundarbans almost every day. But on weekends the crowd is completely gone. Some say that this year’s Hilsa festival is seeing more tourists than the Sundarbans travel season in winter. As a result, tourism traders are quite happy. And the tourists are also happy to have the chance to see the rain-soaked Sundarbans to taste the different flavors of hilsa of the same size.
