St. Martin's Island । সেন্ট মার্টিন্স দ্বীপ

St. Martin's Island । সেন্ট মার্টিন্স দ্বীপ St. There is a small adjoining island that is separated at high tide, called Chera Dwip. During British occupation the island was named St. Martin Island.

Martin's Island (Bengali: সেন্ট মার্টিন্স দ্বীপ) is a small island (area only 8 km2) in the northeastern part of the Bay of Bengal, about 9 km south of the tip of the Cox's Bazar-Teknaf peninsula, and forming the southernmost part of Bangladesh. It is about 8 kilometres (5 miles) west of the northwest coast of Myanmar, at the mouth of the Naf River. The first settlement started 250 years ago by Ar

abian sailors who named the island 'Jazeera'. During the First Anglo-Burmese War between the British and Burmese empires in 1824–1826, rival claims to the island were a major factor. The local names of the island are "Narikel jinjira"[1] which means 'Coconut Island' in Bengali, and "Daruchini Dwip". It is the only coral island in Bangladesh.
