The period between late April and October is ideal to watch birds coming to make their nests at Vam Sat Tourist Site in HCMC’s outlying coastal district Can Gio.

Can Gio, more than 50km from central HCMC, has a natural bird sanctuary which is home to over 200,000 birds of 26 different species.
In addition to birding, first-time visitors can also get hands-on knowledge of Can Gio mangrove forest and join some fun activities like crocodile fishing and boating.
Joining the tour of Can Gio recognized as the World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 2000, tourists will be picked up in the downtown area. Upon their arrival at Vam Sat Tourist Site, they will take a boat ride to admire the typical flora in the forest and see daily activities of local fishermen.
