Bich Dam is gradually becoming a community tourism destination. This place promises to bring new experiences to tourists and sustainable development opportunities to the people.
Journey to a small hamlet in the middle of the ocean
Bich Dam is more than 8 nautical miles (about 15km) from the center of Nha Trang City. From Phu Quy port, visitors can go by fishermen's boat at a cost of only a few tens of thousands of VND.
Mr. Bui Quoc Toan - a resident of Nam Nha Trang ward recounted that on a journey lasting more than an hour and a half, the scene of Nha Trang from afar appeared like a painting of the sea. Mixed with large and small islands, mysterious grottos and bird- quarrying areas with houses perched on the cliff.
"Coming to Bich Dam, visitors will find a coastal road that embraces a small village, clear, gentle blue sea water. People here say that the name Bich Dam comes from the turquoise color of the water all year round" - Mr. Bui Quoc Toan shared.
