km off the coast. The largest island is Hon Cu Lao (also known as Hon Lao), surrounded by smaller ones such as Hon Kho Me, Hon Kho Con, Hon La, Hon Dai, Hon Mo, Hon Tai, and Hon Ong. With a rich marine ecosystem home to over 950 aquatic species untouched natural beauty, and unique cultural values, Cham Islands has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Biosphere Reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond its natural beauty, Cham Islands also preserve many ancient cultural relics and traditional village communal houses, reflecting the spiritual life and daily customs of island communities. These cultural treasures make the islands an appealing destination for nature lovers seeking to explore the rustic charm of Vietnam\u2019s central coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best time to visit Cham Islands is from March to August, when the weather is sunny, the sea is calm, and the water is crystal clear. Among these months, April to July marks the most ideal dry season, making it perfect for traveling by canoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In contrast, the period from September to February is the rainy and stormy season, when the sea is rough and most tourism services are temporarily suspended for safety reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6-1024x675.jpg\" alt=\"The beauty of Cham Islands is often likened to a tropical paradise nestled within the heart of Hoi An.\" class=\"wp-image-5613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6-1024x675.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/khach-san-hoi-an-sang-trong-2-6.jpg 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The beauty of Cham Islands is often likened to a tropical paradise nestled within the heart of Hoi An.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Independent_travel_costs_to_Cham_Islands\"><\/span>Independent travel costs to Cham Islands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To prepare well for a self guided trip to Cham Islands, it\u2019s important to understand the necessary expenses.

If you&#8217;re starting from Da Nang, there are several ways to reach Cham Islands. You can take a taxi, which costs around 300,000\u2013400,000 VND per trip, hire a private car, ride a motorbike, or take a bus to Hoi An. From there, continue by taxi for another 15\u201320 minutes to reach Cua Dai Port the starting point for the island journey. At the port, you can choose a high speed canoe for a quick ride or a wooden boat if you prefer a slower trip and want to enjoy the sea views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The canoe is the most popular means of transport due to its fast travel time only about 15\u201320 minutes. The ticket price for a canoe ride is around 260,000 VND. Alternatively, if you&#8217;re looking to save money, you can take a wooden boat (local ferry), which takes about 90 minutes and costs between 50,000\u2013100,000 VND per trip, though it usually operates only once in the early morning. After arriving on the island, you can rent a motorbike to explore various attractions, or hire a local fisherman\u2019s boat if you want to go fishing or tour around the island.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4-1024x675.jpg\" alt=\"To get to Cham Islands, you need to travel to Cua Dai Port and then hire a boat to reach the islands.\" class=\"wp-image-5637\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4-1024x675.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/hotelroyalhoian.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/luxury-hotels-hoi-an-vietnam-3-4.jpg 1366w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">To get to Cham Islands, you need to travel to Cua Dai Port and then hire a boat to reach the islands.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Popular_attractions_on_Cham_Islands\"><\/span>Popular attractions on Cham Islands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eo_Gio_%E2%80%93_The_perfect_spot_to_watch_sunrise_and_sunset\"><\/span>Eo Gio \u2013 The perfect spot to watch sunrise and sunset<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eo Gio is one of the most striking stops on Cham Islands, especially for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts.
