A morning on Cai Tau River, Ca Mau

The most exciting river scene is in the early morning. Before dawn, couples can be seen rowing small boats to remove square nets, a popular form of fishing in the West. Casting nets the night before, lifting them up the next day and harvesting, this fishing profession is exactly like the Southern saying “playing for fun, eating for real”. Boats loaded with rice, paddy, and household goods from all directions gather at the market located at the intersection of waterways, the sound of boats exploding creates a unique harmony of the river region. For visitors coming to Ca Mau for the first time, they should not miss the chance to visit by boat. There are not many fruit gardens here like in Tien Giang and Hau Giang, but there are shrimp farms, ponds raising crabs and fish of many kinds. Pulling the boat to shore, choosing any small restaurant, anywhere, guests can enjoy fresh, delicious local products in the Southern sunlight. Sharing a common source to the ocean, the Ca Mau water streams are likened to hundreds, thousands of blood vessels in the body, never resting to nourish this fertile land.
