Samsernagar is the closest encounter place of Sundarban. Even 6-7 years back tiger trespassing into the village was a regular story. This eastern part of Sundarban contains the 90% of the total tiger of Indian Sundarban. As this part is still out of Tourism so wildlife have chosen this part for their habitat. So this Eastern part is a paradise for wildlife photographer, Animal lover and ironically chances of tiger and crocodile spotting is maximum here. Samsernagar is divided from Sundarban by a small man made canal,
but during low tide there used to be no water and during high-tide with full water local fisherman takes their fishing boat out for daily work. Many people are depended on this Sundarban in terms of catching Big size Crabs
and collecting pure honey from the Jungle. Somebody do it legally and some illegally but all the activities used to be very much adventurous. They take risk of their life and almost everyday get into the Jungle.
Few years back Forest department has circled the full Sundarban by Nylon wire to protect the local people and since then casualties has been minimized significantly. In 2009 the full village was submerged during
the disaster of Ayela and since then this village is trying to stand on it’s own feet and to some extent successful though and going to be the attraction for coming days.
