Land of "Yellow Flowers on Grass"

Phu Yen Island

There is a special place in Phu Yen, known as "yellow flowers on green grass" where you can make a way to walk from the mainland to the islet, experiencing the walking path across the ocean to the island.

 Walking on the floating path in the middle of the sea, you feel an extremely interesting experience. Nhat Tu Son Island is a beautiful one of Phu Yen, suitable for wild experiences combined with relaxation. 

Nhat Tu Son Island is located in Xuan Dai Bay, about 300m from the mainland, in Xuan Thanh Ward, Song Cau Town, Phu Yen Province. With the shape of the word "most" in Chinese characters, it looks like a character drawn by nature in the middle of the blue sea, so the island has a special name: Nhat Tu Son. 

The island is covered with trees, mostly rosewood and vines that grow on the island. With a total island area of ​​about 6 hectares, this is an ideal habitat for birds and animals in the Xuan Dai Bay ecosystem. 

During Tet holidays, the peak tourist season, the number of tourists coming to explore and visit Nhat Tu Son island is very crowded. Coming to the land of 'yellow flowers on green grass', do you want to step on the magical sea-crossing path? 

Going around the island, you will encounter rocks of all shapes and sizes, many unique and strange shapes. Some small caves go deep into the heart of the island such as Am Phu Cave, Bat Cave, Buddha Cave... you can light a torch or use a flashlight to explore like a  movie about Hollywood adventure

The walking path through the sea, connecting the island and the mainland. On low tide days, from Nhat Tu Son island, a white sand road connects to the mainland, about 300m long. Xuan Dai Bay is surrounded by mountains, so when the waves rush in and bounce back, the two waves meet to create the phenomenon of double waves. 

Over time, sand dunes form, low tide can walk across the sea. According to the experience of local people in this area, to calculate the low tide showing the walking path across the island, you must rely on the lunar calendar: From the beginning of the month to the full moon day (lunar calendar) you should go in the afternoon, about 13:00 to 16:00. From the 16th to the end of the lunar month, you should go early in the morning to midday, around 5am to 9am. 

At this time, the road appears below sea level, visitors can walk easily, if it is shallower, you can ride a bicycle across the island.
