Cu Lao Cham (Quang Nam): Discovering the Global Biosphere Reserve and the Diving Experience

Explore Cu Lao Cham, part of Quang Nam province – a UNESCO biosphere reserve. This article will introduce its pristine beauty, rich marine ecosystem, and the unique coral diving experience available here.

Cu Lao Cham, located about 15km from Hoi An Ancient Town (Quang Nam), is a beautiful archipelago consisting of 8 large and small islands. It is famous not only for its pristine beaches but also for being recognized by UNESCO as a Global Biosphere Reserve due to its ecological diversity.

1. Biosphere Reserve and Pristine Beauty

The title of UNESCO Biosphere Reserve confirms the special ecological value of Cu Lao Cham. The archipelago possesses rich forest and marine ecosystems, particularly diverse marine flora and fauna, including coral reefs, sea grass beds, and many rare seafood species.

The local people of Cu Lao Cham are highly conscious of environmental preservation, exemplified by the "say no to plastic bags" campaign and the protection of sea turtles. It is thanks to this strict conservation that Cu Lao Cham (Quang Nam) retains its pristine beauty, largely untouched by commercialization.

2. Snorkeling and Diving - The Underwater World

The most appealing activity in Cu Lao Cham is diving (snorkeling or scuba diving). The marine area around the island is considered one of the places with the most beautiful and diverse coral reefs in Vietnam.

You will be provided with life jackets, goggles, and snorkels to personally explore the colorful underwater world. The vibrant coral reefs and schools of tropical fish swimming around will make you feel like you've stepped into a beautiful natural aquarium.

3. Exploration and Cuisine in Cu Lao Cham

Besides diving, tourists can visit the ancient Hai Tang Pagoda, the ancient Cham Well (believed to extend longevity according to local legend), and enjoy famous local specialties such as:

• Sun-dried squid (Mực một nắng): Dried under one full day of sun to be crispy.

• Stone crab (Cua đá): A characteristic type of crab found only in Cu Lao Cham.

Cu Lao Cham (Quang Nam) is the ideal choice for those seeking peace, wishing to explore a unique biosphere reserve, and partake in exciting diving activities.
