Amazing guild, beautiful sea life, delicious food, and gorgeous views! Do it
This was an incredible trip! Our guild, Johnny Tran, was friendly, helpful, knowledgable, and spoke great english. We learned a little about the history of the Cham people, the biodiversity of the islands, and a lot about Vietnam generally. The boat and snorkeling guild was very organized, and we had a spectacular time! The “deeper dive” was an experience of a lifetime, definitely go for it if your ears can take 15’+ of depth. Sadly, there weren't any monkeys around where we ate lunch. So Johnny even worked with the staff to find us two motorcyclists who took us to find one!! Absolutely above and beyond the call duty. Dont expect that every trip, but its just an example of the hospitality and accommodation that we experienced going to the Cham Islands. This is a must do!
