Karnaphuli River: Navigation Guide
The Karnaphuli River powers Chittagong’s economy and connects to the Bay of Bengal. Understanding its river tide patterns and bar depths is essential for safe maritime tide data management in 2025. For weather updates, check the Marine Warning for Bangladesh from the Bangladesh Meteorological Department, or explore our Chittagong Port Services for more resources.
- Size and Location: 667 meters wide, flowing through southeastern Bangladesh.
- Source and Course: Originates in Mizoram’s Lushai Hills, covering 270 km to the estuary tide forecast area.
River Bar Depths (2025)
| Outer Bar Located at the river mouth currents; least depth: 5.3 meters (ISLWL). |
| Inner Bar Situated 2.26 km upstream from the Outer Bar; least depth: 7.2 meters (ISLWL). |
| Gupta Bar is 8.58 km upstream from the Outer Bar, and the least depth is 6.9 meters (ISLWL). |
These depths are critical for Karnaphuli River navigation and shipping tide windows. Depths vary due to lunar tide influences and weather-driven tides, so verify nautical tide records daily.
