The Experience

Before You Go

Bring reef-safe sunscreen

Protect coral and your skin; choose mineral-based sunscreen and reapply after swimming.

Wear non-slip water shoes

Rocky entries and small dinghy transfers are common—grippy shoes make boarding and shore landings safer.

Take motion-sickness meds if needed

Open crossings can be choppy in the morning—pre-dose for best results rather than waiting until you feel ill.

Keep a dry bag for valuables

Phones and cameras are vulnerable during SUP or snorkeling—store them in a sealed dry bag on deck.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small, rocky islets reachable by tender with shallow snorkel reefs
  • Quiet sand pockets for a private picnic away from main beaches

Wildlife

  • Reef fish such as parrotfish and butterflyfish
  • Occasional sea turtles near healthy reef patches

Conservation Note

Reef health varies by spot—use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid touching coral, and follow crew guidance to minimize anchor and swim-area impacts.

The bay sits along a coastal region long used by Vietnamese and Cham fishers; nearby islands were once small seasonal fishing camps rather than permanent settlements.
