An Khe Lagoon, in Khanh Cuong commune, is a destination attracting many people and tourists. Camping, paddling SUP on fresh water, and exploring wild nature are interesting experiences here.
An Khe Lagoon is considered the nucleus of Sa Huynh Culture, a place that preserves many historical and cultural values. However, the attraction of this place does not stop at history. Coming here, visitors will enjoy the beauty of a quiet natural picture, where rows of green coconuts and casuarina trees stretch out. The lush green grass and clear water create a scene that is both pristine and poetic.
This freshwater lagoon has an exit to the sea through a small stream about 3km long, called Cua Lo. This unique terrain has created a rare landscape where fresh and salt water blend, nurturing a diverse ecosystem.
With a large meadow and diverse ecosystem, Cua Lo canal is like a gift for those who love to explore nature. An Khe lagoon has many advantages to develop a picnic tourism model with many attractive activities.
Coming to Quang Ngai for the first time, Ms. Bui Thi Kieu Oanh (Gia Lai) said she was impressed with the still quite pristine scenery of An Khe lagoon. "Swinging SUP on the lagoon in the afternoon is the most memorable experience. The air is cool, the space is spacious, so it is very relaxing," she shared.
Among the activities here, SUP rowing is a novel sport, attracting the attention of many tourists when coming to experience it.
According to Mr. Le Phuong Huy, a local tourism worker, SUP rowing activities are still quite new in Quang Ngai but meet the tastes of young people today, especially the demand for high-quality "photo hunting". "SUP rowing is very beautiful when it is on camera and is an activity being sought after by many young people," Mr. Huy said.
Coming to Cua Lo estuary, visitors also have the opportunity to participate in interesting activities close to the lives of local people, such as night net fishing. These experiences not only bring joy but also help visitors understand more about the people and culture here.
With the careful preparation of business establishments, along with the involvement of levels, sectors and localities, the picnic tourism model at Cua Lo estuary, An Khe lagoon promises to bring many new and attractive experiences, contributing to promoting the image of safe and friendly Quang Ngai tourism to tourists.
This is a practical step, showing the development potential of Quang Ngai tourism not only based on traditional destinations but also effectively exploiting unique natural and cultural values.
