After finishing the Phan Rang - Nha Trang route, we proceeded along the coastal road to Tuy Hoa city for over 130 km.



Traveling along Nha Trang Bay, Nha Phu Lagoon, we quickly reached the town of Van Gia - Van Ninh - Khanh Hoa to catch the ship at 9h to Diep Son Island. An island lying in the middle of Van Phong Bay with 3 main islands, Diep Son has emerged as a dream check-in place in the past two years. From Van Gia port, we take the Phuong Dong wooden boat to start the journey to discover Diep Son.




From a distance, we saw a long stretch of sand in the middle of the ocean, hidden by the waves, creating a unique feature of Diep Son. This place has been called the "sea road" or "Diep Son hydrographic" by most of the tourist community.




In order to fully experience Diep Son, we decided to move by two main transports: wooden ships and canoe. All necessities are transported from the mainland. After approximately 45 minutes on the sea, we arrived Diep Son pier.




The scene of the Diep Son is so simple and romantic, so any visitors who come here always want to stay longer, or at least go back once. Under the tree, enjoy a glass of green tea or heat just lying on the hammock swaying to enjoy meaningful life.




Before emerging as a "must-visit" hot spot for the last two years, the main economic of the locals is farming and fishing.




In Vietnam, there are 3 roads with the sea way, the road to Hon Ba (Vung Tau), Nhat Tu Son (Song Cau, Phu Yen) and Diep Son (Van Ninh, Khanh Hoa). The longest and most beautiful is Diep Son.




Sitting on the high stairs, watching Van Phong Bay or creativity with the angles from the sky is an experience not to be missed when coming to this island.




Back to the mainland by canoe, passing Co Ma pass through Dai Lanh sea, we turn right into NH 29 to Vung Ro, visit the relic of Boat No. Vung Ro - Ho Chi Minh Road on the sea.




Dai Lanh dynasty was built in 1890 in Dong Hoa district - Phu Yen has long been considered a place to visit when Phu Yen. Long ago, Cape Dai Lanh is considered the easternmost of Vietnam, where the sun is the earliest in the country. Even today, the easternmost of Vietnam accurately recorded in Mui Khe - Khanh Hoa, but the value of lighthouse Dai Lanh is still intact.




There are 2 ways to get into the Dai Lanh lighthouse: go straight over the bridge and climb the steps, then follow the guide board, cross the bushes, rocks. The second way you can go along the stream to the sea, then go up the stairs through the forest pine.




You can sign up for a night out on the lighthouse, to catch the sunrise in the morning. From above, you can feel the pride of being the first person in the country to welcome the dawn.




Bai Mon beach with blue sea, gentle golden sand is always the perfect combination after you visit the lighthouse Dai Lanh.




Follow this small flow of water, you will return to the starting position. The lighthouse was far away, hoping for an early return to this lovely place.




Continuing to move along the National Highway 29, the southern coastal Phu Yen welcomes us by the flaming sunset at the foot of Tien beach.




In the evening, Nhan Tower - symbol of Tuy Hoa city glowing at night. Journey through the two provinces, visit many famous scenery is a memorable experience for any traveler.
