Is there someone like me, because he is so enamored with the beauty of Nha Trang’s sea through the photos, so he did not hesitate to take a backpack on the way to depart a tour to explore the beautiful islands, and it is true that it is coming See Nha Trang beach so beautiful, deserving of one of the most beautiful seas in Vietnam. And during my trip, my favorite island is Yen Island, Hon Noi. I had a very great experience here, so today I want to share with everyone the experience of traveling to Yen Island, detailed from how to book tours, move, eat, visit and have fun at here.
For me, Nha Trang Yen Island is super beautiful, poetic and beautiful, I am only fascinated, setting foot on the island but I thought that this place is a fairytale place in the middle of the vast sea, watching each flock of swiftlets flying in the sky, feeling extremely emotional.
To me, Yen Island is like a fairytale place between heaven and earth
Dao Yen tourism experience: not self-sufficient but must book a tour
According to Nha Trang tourism experience from many people, Yen Island is one of the most unique places that you should definitely not miss. In Nha Trang, every island where swiftlets live is also called Yen Island, but Yen Island in Hon Noi has the largest concentration of swiftlets, and the landscape is very beautiful. Yen Hon Noi Island is located in Nha Trang Bay, about 25km northeast of the mainland.

This island is not self-sufficient, only can tour the Sannest Khanh Hoa Salanganes’Nest company with two modes of transportation: wooden boat (490,000) or canoe (790,000). Breakfast and lunch included in the fare, and coral viewfinder bottom boarding pass. If you have a plan to go, you should book early to make a reservation, because each day they only accept the number of visitors on the island of no more than 100 people, but tickets are sold out very quickly, especially on weekends or season peak schedule.
The tour quality evaluation is very good, it is worth to go, the food is quite good, attentive service, enthusiastic tour guide.

Which season is the most beautiful Yen island?
The purpose of going to Yen Island is to watch the birds nest, so of course, you will have to choose a beautiful weather time and the birds fly back to see it.

Move to Yen Island
The Yen Island tour will start at 7:30 am, and around 4 pm is already on the mainland, so you need to get up early to avoid missing the trip, and should arrive about 15 minutes early to be active.
Island tour departure morning at Cau Da port near vinpearl Nha Trang, if you come here by motorbike, you should park outside.
I choose to take a wooden boat to save money, because Yen Hon Noi Island is about 25km from the mainland, so going by wooden boat will take more than an hour, and if you choose to take a canoe, the departure will be about an hour later ( that’s about 8 and a half). Because the tour includes breakfast, you will be given meat sandwiches and drinks. According to my experience, we should only eat a little to fight hunger and then go to the island to continue eating, because if the boat eats too much, anyone who gets seasick is easy to “give out” very easily.

Hon Sam and Hon Ngoai
Hon Sam is the first place to visit when setting foot on the beautiful Yen Island. Here swiftlets and seagulls fly around in crowded circles, swiftlets are small and beautiful, the seagulls are a little bigger, and more chubby. Look at us, love is love.
Swarms of swiftlets flying in the sky
Standing from Sam islet, you can see far away to see Ngoai Islet, this is the largest natural swallow cave in Vietnam, with a unique cone shape, but because the terrain here is dangerous, you can only stand. from afar to watch but not in here.

Admire the beautiful coral reef
It is true that nature is so fond of Yen Island when this place is not only the place that contains the largest reserves of swallow nests in Vietnam, but also has super beautiful coral reefs. Under the transparent water and the shimmering sunlight, the coral reefs appear extremely brilliant with many special shapes.

If anyone can swim well and know how to dive, rent a diving suit to experience. I am not good at swimming so I have to watch the corals from the glass bottom boat for safety, a little regret that the glasses seem quite fuzzy so the coral cannot be seen very well.

Kayaking
An activity is also quite interesting, boating floating in the middle of the sea with a flock of oats flying overhead, it is very interesting, worth a try.
Review the tour’s food
Tour fare includes two meals and lunch. Breakfast is light, nothing special, sandwich, 1 can of bird nest, 1 bottle of filtered water, so called okay.
Lunch has a variety of dishes, the quality is quite great, with steamed squid, grilled fish, roasted shrimp with meat, stir-fried cabbage … tasting is very good, the food is also quite a lot so do not worry about being hungry.
The lunch was quite delicious with the menu of many dishes
