My Visit to the St. Martin's Island
Last month I went to the St. Martin's Island with my parents. We went from Chattogram to Teknaf by a bus and from Teknaf to the St. Martin's by a sea bus. It took us 2 and a half hours to reach the St. Martin's Island by sea truck. We saw beautiful coral of different sizes and colours, turtles and sea fishes in the sea water. We also took a day-long cruise in the deep sea.
