There are several bus services available from Dhaka to Teknaf(টেকনাফ).
Using one of those you have to come at Teknaf(টেকনাফ). Best service from
Dhaka is Shamoli Poribohon(শ্যামলী পরিবহন). Currently the bus fare is
800 taka. Alternately you can come to Cox's bazar from Dhaka and then
using local bus services you can reach at Teknaf.
From the Teknaf jetty area you can use any ship of Sent Martin Island. Eagle, LCT Kutubdia(কুতুবদিয়া), Keyari Sindbad(কেয়ারী সিন্দাবাদ), etc are the few ship for the two hour sea crusing. A round trip ticket is 450 per person. You can buy the ticket of Ship from Dhaka if you want.
If you miss your ship, you can use Trawler 100 taka per person. Or use speed boat from Shah Porir Dip(শাহ পরীর দ্বীপ). Speed boat is costly. If you have max 8 member at your group, you can hire the boat for 2000 taka.
Where to Stay:
Plenty of hotels and guest houses are available at st martin island now a days. If you are with a group of bachelor people, you may not book hotels before arrivals. But if you are with your family that case make a reservation. Few good hotels from the island are Obokash(অবকাশ), Shimana Periye(সীমানা পেরিয়ে), Prince Heaven, Sand Shore, Blue Marine, etc. I have used a six bed cottage from Blue Marine Resort. It was 3000 taka per night. Contact number of their Dhaka booking office is 0173399001.
Where to Eat:
Few hotels of St martin's Island have food facilities. Those are considerably expensive but you can taste those if you are lazy. Basically the foods from the jetty area is the cheapest from the whole island. I'd prefer to have a walk towards the jetty and have a feast.
If you do not like to arrange the tour yourself, you can use help from tourism organizations. I bought Ship ticket from this guy 01916910987.
