Return to nature - Discover Tre Lon island, Con Dao

Discover the Great Hon Tre - Journey back to nature
Trekking through a pristine forest, immersing in crystal-clear water, and admiring unique coral reefs, or climbing towering mountains that have stood for thousands of years. These simple experiences of reconnecting with nature are catalysts for enriching your quality of life.

This is an opportunity for visitors to return to pure nature. Nature surrounding you is a catalyst for awakening inner peace. Camping at the Hon Tre Lam Station with a vast sky surrounded by the sea. Whether in the early morning or at night, there are echoes of insects harmonizing with the sound of waves. Especially, experiencing sunset and sunrise with a heart returning "home".


 

 

Bang beach - Dat Tham
A journey lasting more than 3km across a vast primary forest with diverse vegetation, through streams and small paths. The winding slopes challenge the adventurous spirit of your feet... The reward of this journey is to admire Bai Bang stream and the hidden infinity pool next to the endless beach. Especially, you can immerse yourself in the cool stream and if you are lucky, you may encounter and capture photos of the Nicobar pigeon - a rare and precious bird species in Con Dao.
