CAM THANH COCONUT FOREST & HOI AN ANCIENT TOWN

ITINERARY

14:00 | Hotel Pick-up – Cam Thanh Coconut Forest

Our vehicle and professional English-speaking tour guide will pick you up at your hotel and transfer you to Bay Mau Coconut Forest in Cam Thanh, Hoi An.

Board a traditional Vietnamese basket boat, a distinctive round boat once used by local fishing communities in Central Vietnam.

Watch local fishermen demonstrate traditional fishing techniques, including casting fishing nets, and, when conditions allow, try your hand at casting a net yourself.

Basket Boat Adventure

Cruise deep into the narrow waterways surrounded by lush water coconut palms and discover the unique ecosystem of Cam Thanh.

Learn about:

The history and origins of the water coconut forest
The traditional lifestyle of local fishing communities
The important role of the coconut forest during the wars against France and the United States
Traditional fishing and crabbing techniques

Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere as your basket boat glides through the coconut-lined waterways. With water coconut palms on both sides, the scenery creates a distinctly tropical landscape reminiscent of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta.

During the experience, you may also receive charming handmade souvenirs from local boatmen, such as coconut-leaf grasshoppers, flowers, rings, bracelets and sunglasses.

Don’t miss the exciting basket boat spinning performances, traditional net casting demonstrations and other entertaining displays by local fishermen.

18:00 | Hoi An Ancient Town – Dinner & Evening Discovery

Continue to Hoi An Ancient Town and enjoy a delicious dinner featuring local specialties.

After dinner, explore the atmospheric streets of Hoi An, including the iconic Japanese Covered Bridge.

After the visit, return to Da Nang along one of the city’s most scenic coastal routes, passing beautiful beachfront resorts along the way.
