Introduction |
|
|
Con Dao is
179 sea miles from Vung Tau. Looking at a map,
Con Dao Island looks like a bear rising from the
sea to east of the most southern point of the
country. |
|
 |
| |
Con Dao comprises 16
islets with total area of 7,678 hectares, of
which at 5,150 hectare Con Lon is the largest.
The area, providing facilities for tourists, is
now a national park with beaches, crystal
waters, and coconut groves.
Con Dao Island is also famous for its nice
beaches shaded with evergreen trees, fresh air,
clear blue waters, and primitive forests. Some
of those beaches include Dam Trau Hang Duong and
Phi Yen where visitors can relax and enjoy the
warm temperature. The best time to visit Con Dao
Island is from March to June, when the sea is
calm. |
