Our guide will meet and pick you up at the hotel lobby then we transfer to Vung Tau Beach, 120 km away from Saigon, was formerly a resort of American Army during Vietnam War. This area is also affectionately known by Vietnamese as honeymoon island, with 4 main unspoiled beaches to choose from for relaxation and water activities. Upon arrival, we will take a tour to visit Whale Temple - according to legend, the remains of a whale washed up on the Vung Tau beach over 100 years ago. The carcass was so gargantuan that fishermen had to wait for the flesh to decompose before being able to pull it to shore and display the bones which came to symbolize the protector of the coast. Now, every time a whale washes ashore, the bones are ceremonially hauled to the mausoleum. Visitors are welcome to visit the quaint temple with its impressive display of all things whale from paintings and bones to statues.
