📝 Description
The Natural Rock Formation on Neil Island is a naturally sculpted coral bridge that has been carved out by the relentless action of waves over many years. It resembles a stone arch standing dramatically over the rocky coast, with the sea splashing beneath. Locally referred to as Howrah Bridge, it holds cultural as well as geological significance.
Visitors typically reach the site via a short trail from Laxmanpur Beach 2, passing through a rugged path covered in rocks and small tidal pools. The area comes alive during low tide, when the water level drops and reveals marine life nestled between the rocks, such as sea urchins, shellfish, and tiny reef fish.
Due to the slippery and uneven coral surface, it’s recommended to wear proper footwear and, if possible, take a local guide who can explain the formation's history and help you navigate safely. The setting, especially during golden hour, is a photographer’s dream, with the natural bridge silhouetted against the sea and sky.
