Address

Island group off Hoi An; boats usually leave from Cua Dai port

This is about the only day trip in a Da Nang stay that takes you out to sea. A speedboat runs you to the islands, you snorkel over coral, and lunch is seafood on the beach. Most tours follow the same pattern and take around seven hours. Boats do not run in rough seas, so put it early in your itinerary as a buffer.
