Sunrise Fish Market Tour in Hoi An

Sightseeing  :  Vietnam  :  Quang Nam Province  :  Hội An  :  Eco Tours

As the sun rises, the local Hoi An fishermen are returning home with their catch after a long and tiring night fishing in the Cua Dai Sea. With fishing skills handed down from father to son, their boats are laden with a wide variety of fish, crabs, shrimps and shellfish from the Cua Dai Sea. Meanwhile the fishermen’s wives are waiting at the dock to receive the catch and quickly offer it fresh for sale at the nearby bustling Hoi An market. This is a daily ritual in the life of the Hoi An fishing families. This sunrise fish market will bring you into the daily life of the local Hoi An fishermen – a privileged experience.You will be picked up at your hotel by Jack Tran's mini-van and transfer to your boat. Cruise to the mouth of the river where it meets the Cua Dai Sea and observe the daily ritual of the local fishing fleets returning at sunrise. Participate with the fisherman as they unload the fish from their nets and prepare them to sell at market. Next step: visit the local fish market! After the market visit, try your hand at riding Hoi An's iconic "Thung Chai," otherwise known as the basket boat before reboarding your main vessel. Back on-board, enjoy a coffee and a complimentary traditional fisherman’s breakfast prepared by our chef. Return to hotel by mini-van.
