Coincidentally knowing Nam Du Island through social networks, Phan Thanh Dat (26 years old, Ho Chi Minh City) had a memorable 2-day, 1-night trip here.

Nam Du's advantage over some other famous beaches is its wild, natural beauty, the blue sea water that can see fish swimming below. This place has not been exploited for tourism too much, so the air is fresh and life is very peaceful. Photo: Interviewee

In addition to the large island, Nam Du also has a system of surrounding small islands, of which Hon Lon (Cu Tron) is the largest island with a large population. Some other prominent islands include Hon Mau, Hon Dau, Hon Ngang, Hon Hai Bo Dap, each with its own beauty.

Kien Giang currently has 3 island communes without national grid power including An Son, Nam Du (Kien Hai) and Tho Chau, the power source is only supplied for 18 hours/day. Every day, Nam Du will cut off the power and use generators, and islanders also limit the use of devices that consume a lot of electricity such as air conditioners. The road is easy to travel and the island still has enough necessities and fresh water. Photo: Interviewee

Before coming to Nam Du, Thanh Dat proactively researched information through social networking sites and local tour guides. He believes that if tourists intend to go to Nam Du, they need to prepare relatively well because they need to travel a lot, the journey here is not like a resort. In addition, the island is still pristine, so there will not be many entertainment attractions and rich and diverse accommodation and restaurants. Photo: Interviewee
