Lying at the base of the Hon Heo peninsula, located in Ninh Hoa Town under Khanh Hoa Province, south-central Vietnam, Ninh Van fishing village bewitches visitors with its wild and serene beauty.

Over the past few days, a series of photos of the village have gone viral on Facebook and TikTok.

Through these images, young people can see its natural landscapes and locals’ lives there, so they are rushing to travel to the unspoiled destination.

A dreamy long coastline, a mild climate, and dense green foliage make the fishing village a beguiling tourist site.

Surrounded by forests and the sea, Ninh Van fishing village boasts fresh air and a tranquil life.

Le Giang Chau, a villager, said that a slew of tourists visit the place on weekends.

Multiple homestays and lodging facilities have mushroomed to serve a large number of travelers.

Also, locals are offering tent-leasing services and fishing tours to thrill holidaymakers.

Nguyen Dang Hoang, hailing from Ho Chi Minh City, said that Ninh Van fishing village possesses a wild beauty.

Hoang recommended the village as a place worth a visit after workdays.

Visiting Ninh Van fishing village, travelers can immerse themselves in the natural scenery, admire the pristine beach with white sand and clean blue water, and savor fresh seafood.

Moreover, visitors can drop by local wet markets to soak up the cultural beauty of fishermen.

Catching shellfish, octopuses, and sea urchins at night is a fascinating experience in the village.

“The village is clean and quiet, while locals are friendly and helpful,” Hoang said.

Tra Van Hai, chairman of Ninh Van Commune, said that the local administration aims to invest in community tourism to help raise locals’ income and improve the quality of their lives.

Ninh Van Commune was recognized as a potential site for community tourism development by the Khanh Hoa Province People’s Committee in late 2023, Thanh Nien (Young People) newspaper reported.

Nguyen Thanh Hung, head of the culture and information division of Ninh Hoa Town, said that the town is mapping out a plan to train households to join the community tourism model.

Apart from exploring Ninh Van fishing village, tourists can experience garlic and peanut farms, and take a jaunt to historical relic sites around the island commune.
