Hon Mun, a proposed marine protected area, is home to a large variety of species including the Hawksbill Turtle. A number of the small, rocky islands off the coast of Khanh Hoa Province provide a suitable nesting habitat for salangane birds, whose nests have been harvested for years to make traditional “birds’ nest soup”.

PM: Time to snorkel, dive or take a glass-bottomed boat to admire the beautiful coral reef and marine life at Hon Mieu. The rest of the afternoon is free for time on the beach, to go snorkeling or scuba diving, to trek to the village in Dam Bay or to return to the boat to enjoy on-board activities. Guests can enjoy the sunset while sipping cocktails before a barbecue on the sun deck. After dinner, drinks can be taken in the rooftop bar or guests can have a go at squid fishing or watch a movie.
