Hoian coconut village 1 day
14:00 – Our car and tour guide will pick you up at the hotel and transfer you to the Cam Thanh Coconut Forest (Bay Mau Palm Forest) in Hoi An. Upon arrival, you will board a basket boat, a unique means of transport of Van Lang fishing village, to experience the daily life of local fishermen. Guests will have the chance to watch how the fishermen cast their fishing nets and even try out this exciting skill themselves.
✤ The basket boat will take you along the narrow waterways lined with nipa palms, where you will learn about the origin of water coconuts in Hoi An and the heroic stories of Cam Thanh villagers during the resistance wars against the French and the Americans.
✤ Enjoy the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere as you glide along the river flanked by endless coconut groves, reminiscent of the lush waterways of the Mekong Delta.
✤ Be delighted with simple yet charming souvenirs handmade by local boatmen from coconut leaves – such as grasshoppers, rings, flowers, bracelets, or glasses.
✤ Watch the locals perform their unique “water cutting” technique.
✤ Listen to fascinating stories of the wartime victories of the local people.
✤ Try your hand at fishing and crab-catching, a fun and engaging activity.
