Cyclones in the Bay of Bengal pose significant risks to life and property, particularly in low-lying coastal areas. Storm surges can inundate large regions, displacing communities and causing widespread damage. The densely populated delta region is especially at risk due to its vulnerability to flooding. Key tourist destinations like Cox's Bazar and the Sundarbans are directly in the path of potential storm surges, making them high-risk zones during cyclone seasons. Disruption to transportation and infrastructure is also common, affecting both local residents and travellers.
