Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAC-SAR
SAGAR or SAUGOR
ISLAND
 , an
island
  at the mouth of the
Hugli
  river, in the Twenty-four Parganas
district
  of
Bengal
 . The word means " sea "; and, as being the
place
  where the sacred stream of the
Ganges
  is believed to mingle with the ocean, the island is one of the most frequented places of
Hindu
 
pilgrimage
  in all
India
 , the time for the greatest annual gathering being in January. On the seaward face is a lighthouse, and farther out are the Sandheads, the cruising-ground of the Calcutta pilots.
