I suggest, hiring a boat for 3 hours because it takes 30 minutes (5 km) one-way ride to reach the flamingo point.

Note: Weekdays are the best to visit Kumbhargaon (Bhigwan Bird Sanctuary). On weekends (Saturday & Sunday) there is a rush of tourists that is why waiting time is there to ride a boat. I visited during weekdays and the tour was fruitful.
