Diep Son, where the white sand road in the middle of the blue sea brings a unique and magical experience to those who love to explore.
Diep Son, a precious gem in Van Phong Bay, opens up a magical space like stepping into another world. Here, the ocean is not only a backdrop but also a stage for wonderful moments. If you have ever dreamed of walking on a smooth white sand road in the middle of the ocean, where the deep blue water blends with the white sand, then Diep Son is the ideal destination for you.
Located peacefully in the middle of Van Phong Bay, Khanh Hoa Province, Diep Son is known as the Vietnamese version of "Maldives", consisting of 3 islands, of which the longest island is called by the locals based on its shape as the Reclining Buddha Island. On calm days, in the morning you can easily walk from one island to the other by the 800m long, 1m wide sand path. This place is not only famous for its wild beauty but also has something special: a walking path in the middle of the sea that appears with the tide. When the tide recedes, a strip of smooth white sand slowly appears in the middle of the vast ocean, connecting the two islands of Hon Qua and Hon Bip, more than 1km long. This path, called "Diep Son Waterway", only appears for a few hours each day, giving visitors an extremely interesting and unique experience.


As you walk along this white sand road, the clear blue water gently lapping at your feet, you will feel like you are entering another world – where people and nature blend harmoniously and peacefully. This is not only an ideal place to take impressive photos, but also brings a unique sense of adventure when you can walk from one island to another without any means of transport.


But Diep Son does not stop at that magical sandy road. Not far from Tu Hai beach, you will encounter rows of coastal stilt houses, a resting place for those who want to stay overnight on the island. These stilt houses blend in with the natural landscape, not destroying the wild beauty of Diep Son, but also giving visitors a wonderful feeling of relaxation. Every morning, when you wake up, you will see the sun rising right in front of the window, along with the gentle sound of the waves lapping around, creating an unforgettable moment of peace.
In the afternoon, after enjoying swimming in the clear blue water, you can take a walk along the path around the island, to watch the sunset gradually fall behind the majestic Truong Son mountain range. The sunset scene in Diep Son is truly an unforgettable experience, bringing a sense of serenity and peace, making every moment here special and memorable in life.


To get to Diep Son, you can depart from Nha Trang or Phu Yen, then move to Van Gia port. From here, you can travel by canoe or boat to the island. Although this journey is not too long, the feeling when setting foot on white sand in the middle of the blue sea will make all the difficulties in moving completely worth it.
Currently, Diep Son has not been exploited for tourism too much, tour operators here all focus on protecting the landscape, preserving the wild natural beauty of the island. There are only about 100 households living on the island, they have been attached to the sea for many generations. The people here still retain their traditional cultural characteristics and simple working lifestyle, creating a unique attraction for tourists when they come to explore.
If you have ever visited other famous beach resorts, Diep Son will bring you a new breeze, a truly different experience. This is not only a place for you to take beautiful "virtual life" pictures but also an opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, find peace in your soul.
Diep Son is not only a destination, but also a journey to discover the beauty of nature and indigenous culture, where every visitor can find memorable moments and precious memories. Come and experience Diep Son, where the sea and people blend into a beautiful picture of life.
