Depart from Phu My Port or Hiep Phuoc Port with your own guide and comfortable air-conditioned transport, following an itinerary coordinated around your cruise schedule. Stroll along the golden sands of Thuy Van Beach, enjoy the sea breeze and savour Vietnamese flavours over lunch at a local restaurant. Continue to the impressive Jesus Christ Statue on Nui Nho Mountain, with an optional staircase climb for sweeping coastal views. Discover the fishing community’s spiritual traditions at Thang Tam Whale Temple, then explore the elegant White Palace and its hillside setting overlooking the sea.
