Summer trip to Bich Dam - the farthest pearl island from the coastal city of Nha Trang

Bich Dam Island is part of the Hon Tre island cluster in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa Province. The name Bich Dam comes from the fact that the island is located in the middle of year-round emerald green water. As the farthest island from the shore of Nha Trang City, this place is famous for its wild, deserted beauty, not yet exploited for tourism too much. Photo: NVCC

Knowing about the island through a friend's introduction, Mr. Le Duy Hai (26 years old, Da Lat) was immediately impressed with the wild beauty of Bich Dam and decided to come here for 4 days and 3 nights.

To get from the mainland to the island, visitors need to take a boat from Cau Da port. There is only one boat every day at 11:30. After 2 hours of floating on the sea, visitors will officially set foot on Bich Dam island.

“Completely different from the crowded, polluted city, the air in Bich Dam is extremely fresh and the scenery is pristine. Although it does not have a majestic or impressive beauty, the people on the island are very friendly and hospitable. Everyone I meet here is lovely, smiling, cheerful and enthusiastically helping tourists,” said Mr. Hai.

There are about 200 households living on the island, mainly engaged in fishing. In addition to swimming, visitors can explore the peaceful fishing village of Bich Dam, visit Bich Son Tu pagoda or visit Gieng Mon mountain to see the whole island from above. Photo: Phuong Linh

For adventurous tourists, Mr. Hai suggests following the trail straight into the forest for about 5km to reach Hon Lon lighthouse: “On the way, everyone will be immersed in the wild nature with the chirping of birds. This is one of the oldest lighthouses in Vietnam, over 100 years old. The road is a bit far and difficult to travel, but seeing the whole beautiful Nha Trang Bay is completely worth it.” Photo: NVCC

The male tourist said that Bich Dam Island still lacks electricity and water, so it is not suitable for tourists who want to relax. Tourists should visit the island with the spirit of experience and discovery to fully enjoy the trip. Mr. Hai shared an unexpected incident: "I had a quite interesting experience when I had to ask to take a shower at a local's house because the place I live has no water. People here do not use tap water but mainly pump well water." Photo: NVCC

According to Mr. Hai, on Bich Dam Island there is a community tourism village so tourists will receive maximum support in terms of food and accommodation at affordable prices. His total cost for a 4-day trip on the island is only about 1.5 million VND. Photo: NVCC
