India, where one can see the confluence of Holy Ganges River with the Bay of
Bengal. One needs to cross the Muriganga river via ferry from Harwood point Lot
Number 8 to Kachuberia for traveling to the Gangasagar island.
Regular ferries depart from about 4:00 AM in the morning
till 11:30 PM at night, depending on weather conditions and tides. Duration of
ferry crossing time is 30 to 45 minutes. During Gangasagar mela and Makar
Sankranti festival, many extra ferries and boats run almost all day long for
