Piyali
is
located
at
a
distance
of
75
km
from
Kolkata.
Its
attraction
lies
in
the
tranquillity
of
nature
along
with
a
touch
of
the
Sunderban.
The
Island
itself
is
the
main
attraction
with
its
paddy
fields,
meandering
Piyali
River,
sparse
jungles,
Matla
River,
the
mangrove
forest
on
the
banks
of
the
island
and
village
life.
Some
migratory
birds
also
flock
to
the
coats
of
Piyali
Island
during
winters.
You
can
drive
to
the
Piyali
Island
after
crossing
a
small
bridge
over
River
Piyali.
The
two
rivers
Matla
and
Piyali
surround
this
island.
The
Piyali
River
actually
flows
through
the
Island
and
mixes
with
Matla
River
at
a
later
stage.
There
is
only
one
tourist
lodge
in
this
island
but
it
has
well-supported
infrastructure
for
tourists.
There
are
ample
things
to
do
in
Piyali
Island
–
you
can
take
a
nature
walk,
enjoy
a
boat
ride,
do
some
bird
watching,
enjoy
in
the
gardens
and
savor
the
village
life.
Those
who
want
to
explore
nearby
destinations
can
easily
organize
an
enjoyable
trip
to
Jhorkhali
and
Kaikhali
from
Piyali
Island.
You
can
arrange
for
a
tour
to
Piyali
Island
any
time
of
the
year
but
the
winters
would
be
a
nice
time
to
watch
the
birds.
But
things
could
have
been
better
with
arrangements
for
managing
litters
strewn
all
over.
Lastly
food
one
wishes
for
real
improvement,
