About this experience
Cam Thanh Village, also known as the Bay Mau Coconut Forest, is an 84-hectare coconut grove strategically grown to protect the village against sea waves. Enjoy a peaceful ride along the waterways lined with coconut trees in a traditional basket boat made from strips of bamboo, then coated in waterproof resin from coconut oil, tar, or fibreglass. The journey also features cultural performances that add to the overall experience of the area.
