All You Need To Know About Chuka Beach

Nestled amongst one of the country's most enchanting woods, Chuka depicts a charming scene of living within the constraints of a treehouse, next to the beautiful, turquoise waters, where animals occasionally descend for a refreshing pause. You can enjoy the speedboat experience, which provides immense enjoyment and amazing views. Additionally, the safari trip offers several opportunities to spot elephants, leopards, deer, and perhaps even a tiger as it takes you deeper into the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve. 

The Water Hut is the most popular hut in the area, elegantly situated above the crystal-clear waters, offering a perfect view of the surroundings. The tourism authority has built thatched huts, known as "treehouses," for travellers' accommodation. A one-day stay costs between Rs1,500 and Rs 4,000. Since overnight stays aren't always recommended, you may book a treehouse for a group visit, allowing you to relax and hang out during the day.
