Nafa-khum (Bengali: নাফাখুম) is a waterfall in Bangladesh on
the Sangu River. It is
among the largest waterfalls in the country by volume of water falling. The
wild hilly river Sangu suddenly falls down here about 25–30 feet.
The falls are located in a remote area three hours' walking
distance from Remakri, Thanchi Upazila, Bandarban District.
Remakri is located three hours by boat on the Sangu River fromTindu, which is
itself three hours by boat from Thanchi. Nafa-khum
is not very popular as a tourist destination.
The word "Khum" in Marma language means
"Waterfall". A special type of flying fish, whose local name is nating, is found at
the bottom in a small cave as they swim against the stream but cannot jump over
the height of the fall.
