About Fraserganj

Just 2 km north of Bakkhali is the twin town Fraserganj, which is named after Andrew Fraser. Fraser, in early 1900s, tried to build the area into a resort, which he couldn't as the waves frequently washed the constructions. His office ruins can still be seen here. A Wind Energy Farm that generates 1MW and is soon going to be extended to produce 2 MW is located in Fraserganj. Andrew Frazer the Lieutenant Governor of Bengal (1903 - 1908) fell in love with a small stretch of beach in the western edge of Sundarban, at the village called Narayanitala. He built a beautiful bungalow on the beach, surrounded with coconut grove. This beach later became popular as Frazerganj Beach and the beautiful bungalow became a talking point of English men in Calcutta. The weather is at its best during the winter season in Frazerganj. Visit the beach between October and February to enjoy the pleasant weather.
