Travelling between Duong Dong and Ham Ninh

The trip from Duong Dong to Ham Ninh crosses the island towards the east coast and can be combined with another stop in the same direction if your schedule allows. Do not use old photographs of the former wooden pier as a navigation landmark; confirm the exact restaurant, boat landing or waterfront section you want.

How to prepare?

Send the exact location of the seafood restaurant, landing point or coastal area you are visiting. If you are going for sunrise, remember that much of the outward journey happens in darkness, so the driver needs to be comfortable with early-morning road conditions. Taxi, private car or motorbike can all work depending on the group, but choose based on comfort, driving experience and the planned return time.

Situations to keep in mind

Ham Ninh is a broad coastal area, not one map pin that leads to every restaurant, jetty and section of shore. The old wooden pier featured in many nostalgic photographs has been removed, so it should not be used as a present-day wayfinding reference.

Before you go

Confirm the exact address before booking or starting the ride.
For sunrise, plan for a journey in low light or darkness.
Combine other east-coast stops where it makes sense rather than making separate return trips.
Do not ride or walk into residential lanes or working boat areas unless access is clearly public or permission is given.
