Con Son Islet
Cồn Sơn
A community tourism island in the Hau River offering 'jumping fish' feeding shows, rowboat trips, fruit picking and farm lunches for a slow water-village experience.
Con Son Islet lies in the Hau River in Binh Thuy district. About a hundred households on the island run community tourism. The signature activity is splashing water by a fish pond to draw out fish that leap up to snatch food, known as jumping fish. You can also row small boats through the waterways, visit orchards, make traditional cakes and eat lunch at a farmhouse, and there are simple homestays. Most activities are charged per family, at around 20,000–100,000 Vietnamese dong. It is about 30 minutes by boat from Ninh Kieu Wharf, or you can take a small ferry from the Binh Thuy landing.
