Can Gio stretches from the ocean to the edge of Ho Chi Minh City, covering some forty thousand hectares of diverse habitats including mangroves, palm-fringed islands, steamy jungle, wetlands, and salt marsh. The region boasts astonishing biodiversity and supports one of the most important ecosystems in Vietnam.
The region is an up-and-coming eco-tourism hotspot, although development has been slow so we recommend it as a day trip from Ho Chi Minh City, rather than staying there. There’s a 10km coastline too, although the beaches will never rival that of Phu Quoc – it’s the vibrant jungle that attracts visitors, and nature and wildlife enthusiasts will love this beautiful corner of southern Vietnam.
Can Gio is a wonderful escape from the bustle and pollution of Ho Chi Minh City, ideal for reconnecting with nature, relaxed exploration and wildlife-spotting.
