Andy: What is special about Saint Martin's Island?
Tamal: It's an island in the Bay of Bengal, and it's the
only coral island in Bangladesh. You can see
coral in different shapes and colours. And the
water in the Bay of Bengal is very clean and blue!
Andy: Oh, that sounds wonderful!
Tamal: Yes, it is! You can also see the turtles on the island.

they lay their eggs in them. You can see many fish, too.
Andy: Wow! Really? Can I go sailing?

boats or sea truck. The cruises are exciting and safe.
They are a great way to see the Bay.
