Nam O Reef is located northwest of Da Nang, about 17 km from the city center. It is a complex of rocky reefs stretching along the coast, divided into two parts: the Shallow Reef and the Long Reef. The most special feature of Nam O Reef is the layer of green moss covering the rocks in spring, creating a unique and extremely captivating natural scene. When the tide recedes, the rocks emerge glistening under the sun, making this place an ideal 'photo hunting' spot for photographers and tourists who love nature's simplicity.
Besides its wild beauty, Nam O Reef is also associated with the life of the people of Nam O fishing village – an ancient fishing village famous for its traditional fish sauce making craft. Visitors coming here can not only enjoy the sea view but also learn about the life of fishermen and savor fresh seafood dishes like Nam O raw fish salad – a renowned specialty. Nam O Reef is particularly attractive in the early morning or at sunset, when the light creates a magical scenery between the sea, sky, and moss-covered rocks. This is an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful space close to nature.
