Tam Giang – Dam Chuon Lagoon, Hue City

Tam Giang Lagoon is located at the merge of three big rivers including O Lau, Huong and Bo Rivers. It belongs to Tam Giang Cau Hai, which is the largest freshwater lagoon system in Hue. The region directly or indirectly provides the sufficient living conditions to about 300,000 inhabitants of 326 villages in 31 communes around. Recognized as the richest source of flora and fauna in South East Asia, Tam Giang Lagoon in ancient Hue is an amazing place that is rarely discovered by tourists. It is also beautiful at sunset when golden water is sparkling in along with a maze shrimp farming fields of all shapes and sizes that all fascinate travelers.

Tam Giang is 10 km long and is situated in an area of more than 50 square kilometers. You can go along the lagoon by a small boat starting from Thuan An harbor. If you want to visit Thai Duong Ha village, wait for about 30 minutes while going through some bridges and fields along the lagoon.

Right from the dock, tourists will be in awe with a pretty crowded, hustling and bustling market trading a variety of different commodities, especially when evening comes and sunset purple light is shining on the wooden boats full of fresh seafood including shrimp, fish, squid, etc. If you come to this place in Spring, you may have a chance to participate in “Cau Ngu” festival, which takes place each 3 years.

Additionally, the dawn and sunset in Tam Giang Lagoon are one of those tourists can’t find anywhere else in the country. How beautiful it is when the horizon stretches halfway across, glowing silvery brilliant sunlight on the water surface. Even in the bleak landscape of a rainy afternoon, Tam Giang still shows up its wild beauty. When the ultimate sunbeam of the day suddenly rose up in immense tranquil space, this will create indescribable emotions for you.

The best time to visit Tam Giang Lagoon is in the dry season, which is between February and July. This is the time when floods and storms do not visit this beautiful region and the sun shines throughout the day. The waves are gentle, creating the most romantic scene when it comes to dawn and sunset.
