Beach
The main reason to come to Cox's Bazar is for the beach. The route to the beach, along Sea Beach Rd, can be crowded and dirty, but once on the beach you will find the sand surprisingly clean. There are plenty of places from where you can rent a sun lounge and umbrella, and staff will offer security so you can leave your belongings unattended while you go for a dip.
You could also plant yourself in front of a big hotel, where guards will watch over your gear if you go swimming, and shoo away kids selling shell necklaces. They will also deal with the crowds of gawkers, if they get too intrusive (which they will).

Aggameda Khyang
Aggameda Khyang, a Buddhist monastery at the eastern end of town, is representative of Burmese-style architecture. Its distinctive appearance would stand out anywhere, but nestled among trees in the middle of Cox's Bazar it's all the more fascinating. The main sanctuary is built around massive timber columns. The teak flooring adds an air of timelessness to the place. You may be asked for a donation - Tk 10 is reasonable.

Maha Thin Daw Gree
Behind Aggameda Khyang is Maha Thin Daw Gree, a vast spread of Buddhist buildings amid the trees. Almost invisible from the road, this interesting display of Buddhas was built in 1790.
