The smooth waves and the light current of the ocean surrounding the Cham Islands provide the ideal conditions for snorkelling. Many hotels in Hoi An the likes of Anantara Hoi An Resort encourage their guests to go on day trips to these enchanting islands if time permits.
When to Snorkel
The period between March and September is convenient for a hassle-free snorkelling trip. However, the best weather usually prevails in and around these islands from June to August. Outside these months, the usual stormy weathers continue for hours at a time making it less favourable for snorkelling or any other activity.
The Boat Trip with a View

Underwater Experience
