Tam Giang Lagoon Sunset Tour – Ngu My Thanh Village Experience

Continue to the boat and settle into your seats.

As the boat leaves the boarding area, enjoy the peaceful scenery of Tam Giang Lagoon. The wide water surface, fishing boats, and surrounding countryside offer a refreshing contrast to the busy streets of Hue.

Your guide will introduce the lagoon ecosystem and explain how local communities depend on its natural resources.

Discover the mangrove ecosystem of Tam Giang Lagoon, where rows of mangrove trees form a natural green barrier along the water.

This distinctive landscape provides shelter for aquatic species and plays an important role in the lagoon's ecological balance.

During this part of the journey, take part in two traditional fishing activities:

Traditional Fish-Trap Fishing (Do No)

Learn how local fishermen use traditional traps, known locally as no, to catch fish and other aquatic creatures. Experience the process of setting or lifting the traps and discover how these simple fishing tools are used in daily life.

Clam Harvesting (Dap Tria)

Try a traditional local method of harvesting clams in the lagoon. This hands-on activity gives you a closer understanding of the work and skills involved in the livelihoods of local fishing families.

After the fishing activities, enjoy preparing and tasting some of the seafood caught during the experience, such as grilled clams with scallion oil and local shrimp.

SUP Paddling Experience

Enjoy a stand-up paddleboarding experience on the calm lagoon waters. Take your time to paddle, appreciate the surrounding scenery, and capture memorable photographs.

Continue to the distinctive floating houses known as nha cho.

Built over the water, these structures have an unusual appearance and reflect the close relationship between local residents and the lagoon environment.

Stop to explore the area, enjoy the open views, and take photographs of the floating architecture against the natural landscape.

The peaceful surroundings provide an excellent opportunity to slow down and appreciate the beauty of Tam Giang Lagoon.

Continue cruising across the lagoon while enjoying the fresh air and beautiful surroundings.

This is a relaxing part of the experience, with time for conversation, music, and entertainment on board.

Enjoy light refreshments, including seasonal fruit and Hue's famous banh bot loc (Vietnamese tapioca dumplings filled with shrimp and pork).

As the afternoon progresses, watch the sunlight become softer and the sky gradually change color.

The peaceful scenery creates a wonderful atmosphere for photographs and memorable moments with your travel companions.

End your lagoon adventure with a special seafood meal prepared and served on the boat.
