Vietnam is blessed with numerous beautiful coastlines, including famous tourist spots like Da Nang, Nha Trang, Phan Thiet, Long Hai… However, none quite capture the romantic and enchanting seaside scenery coupled with unique and thrilling experiences like Binh Ba – a secluded island nestled in Cam Ranh, Khanh Hoa province, just over 300km from Ho Chi Minh City.
Only on Binh Ba Island can travelers wander amidst over 3000 residents living on floating fish farms, immerse themselves in the pristine blue sea, go fishing, or delight in coral reef exploration.
Indulging in Fresh Seafood
At Binh Ba, travelers can indulge in fresh seafood right at the fish farms of local fishermen. The seafood, prepared simply, retains the delicious flavors of fish, the aroma of shellfish, and the succulence of shrimp. The dipping sauce is a simple mixture of finely ground green chili pepper, a touch of MSG, sugar for sweetness, and a hint of sourness from lime. Bringing it close to the mouth, the delightful aroma of the sea excites the taste buds, tantalizing the senses with the fresh, sweet, and vibrant flavors of oceanic bounty. Moreover, travelers can savor lobster raised directly at the farms, with a diverse menu, yet grilled lobster over glowing red charcoal remains a favorite.

Beach Bathing Bliss
Perhaps an activity not to be missed when visiting Binh Ba is beach bathing. Bathing at Binh Ba is not about surfing, as the sea here is not as wavy as in Nha Trang or Phan Thiet but calm and gentle, shielded by large rocky mountain ranges. Travelers can plunge into the sea from boats or rafts because the sea here is calm and crystal clear.
Capturing Memorable Moments
Upon arriving at Binh Ba, travelers will be mesmerized by the natural beauty bestowed upon this place. Amidst the sea lies an island, adorned with rocks, trees, and grass intertwined, creating a picturesque landscape that is both majestic and delightful. From any angle, whether on a boat, a fish raft, or on the beaches, Binh Ba always offers photogenic spots that amateur and professional photographers alike cannot resist capturing.
Connecting with Nature
No matter how breathtaking your destination may be, a journey will inevitably lose its completeness without companions to share it with. Someone once said, where you go matters less than who you go with, which perhaps speaks to the importance of fellow travelers.
