Photo Archive: Bangladesh surf
A daily dip into the HUCK back catalogue.
We delve into the HUCK archives to revisit our feature on surfing in Bangladesh.
'I keep to the far side of the beach and watch as men and women wade out into the warm blue water fully clothed to preserve their religious dignity, screaming with excitement as wave after wave rears up and over them. A safe mile from the madness of the main beach, wiry fisherman can be seen dragging wood framed nets into and out of the water, a practice that hasn’t changed in centuries. Behind me, beyond the five-star hotels and flash restaurants, the lush fringe of the Chittagong Hills marks the start of a sprawling jungle spiked with ancient temples and traced by tigers.' - Cyrus Shahrad
