ABN Sukapha Cruise

Dibrugarh

At A Glance

Crafted to host a cozy assembly of up to just 24 guests, ABN Sukapha is a nod to both popular demand and pragmatic design. Many hallmarks of the original '70s heritage passenger ship, the fondly restored ABN Charaidew I, live on in Sukapha. Taking a stand for India's woodlands, the ship embraces a bamboo-clad exterior in the vibrant green-gold hue of Assam. Indigenous artisans fashion the onboard furniture, while treasures within the saloon bear the imprints of Assam and Bengal. Fabrics, handwoven by our supported artisans, drape the vessel, weaving tales of local craftsmanship. Dressed in the essence of true exploration, this vessel embraces an eco-chic allure, bridging tradition with adventure, and inviting you to revel in the harmony of nature.

Posing as an economic landmark, it is of great importance for farmers who need water for irrigation. Along its coast is the Neamati Ghat, the embarkation point of the ABN Sukapha.
