Ba Lua Islands

Located in the waters of Kien Luong district (Kien Giang province), Ba Lua archipelago is a scenic spot still imbued with wild beauty and is considered "Southern Ha Long". According to the remaining traces, the Ba Lua archipelago is the last part of the Ta Lon mountain range that subsided following the movement of the earth's crust during the orogeny period hundreds of millions of years ago. Spreading over an area of ​​about 70km², Ba Lua archipelago includes more than 40 large and small islands such as: Mot island, Lo Coc island, Da Lag island, Heo island, Da Bac island, Dam Duong island, Dam Duoc island, Dam Gieng island, Re Lon island, Re Nho island, Nhum Ba island, Ngang island..., in which, 3 Dam islands are Dam Duong, Dam Duoc and Dam Gieng located quite close to each other, forming a triangle. With an area of ​​about 6 hectares, Dam Duong island is surrounded by strips of fine white sand. Since 2006, a part of the island has been invested in planting many types of fruit trees such as sapodilla, longan, mango, jackfruit, coconut... to form a "garden island". Coming to Dam Duong, visitors will have the opportunity to relax, admire the sea view, and enjoy a variety of fresh seafood. Located about 300m southwest of Dam Duong island, Dam Duoc island has an area of ​​12 hectares, where thousands of mangrove trees grow and develop. That's why the island is called Dam Duoc. Unlike Dam Duong island with lots of white sand, Dam Duoc island has many red pebbles lying all over the island. Along the island's shore, there are bamboo huts with hammocks for tourists to rest and enjoy the cool air. Here, visitors can also enjoy attractive culinary dishes such as sour-cooked cobia, braised cobia with bacon, grouper cooked with porridge, boiled stone crab, grilled crab... Although there has not been investment in tourism services like Dam Duong and Dam Duoc islands, Dam Gieng island (about 100m northwest of Dam Duong) still attracts tourists because of its pristine natural beauty and sandy beaches. , long gravel beach. The reason the island is called Dam Gieng is because on the island there is a freshwater well full of water all year round. Coming to Dam Gieng, visitors can set up their own tents to rest, admire the island, light a campfire to socialize in the evening... Besides the pristine natural beauty, 3 Hon Dams also have the unique feature of being located in shallow seas (water only up to the waist of adults). Therefore, visitors do not need to use a boat but just wade through the water to go from one island to the other. Wading a few hundred meters in the blue sea with the sound of breaking waves will be an unforgettable adventure experience for visitors. Low tide is the ideal time for tourists to wade through the water to admire the sea and catch seafood such as crabs, fish, oysters, snails... From Kien Luong tourist wharf (Binh An commune, Kien Luong district) or Ba Hon wharf (Kien Luong town, Kien Luong district), visitors take about 45 minutes by train to reach 3 Hon Dam.
