Go to Hon Tam Island to ride dolphins

18/05/2017

You must have seen dolphins performing tricks with funny jumps on the waves, even riding on dolphins. But have you ever thought about getting into the belly of a dolphin and doing the same tricks as this intelligent fish? Well, that is true in the famous tourist island in Nha Trang, where you can freely try the thrill on the sea this summer.

Not only dolphins but also sharks, and both are properly named! However, they are sports submersibles designed to resemble dolphins - Seabreacher Z and sharks - Seabreacher Y. Each "fish" is 5.18m long, nearly 1m wide, can glide on the water surface at a speed of 65km/h and dive to a depth of about 1.5m. These two smart "fish" were ordered by Hon Tam tourist area from the US and are allowed to exclusively exploit tourism services for two consecutive years, starting from April 16, the time the service was launched. It is even more interesting to know that US President Donald Trump also owns such a unique sports submersible.

 

 

From the first time they appeared, the two Seabreachers Y and Z really attracted tourists, especially young people who like to seek thrills. In addition to the cockpit, each 'fish' has a compartment for one guest. Guests enter the cabin, fasten their seat belts, and the 'fish' will glide out to sea, freely frolicking and somersaulting. Sometimes it jumps up on the surface of the waves, sometimes it stretches out and then slowly dives down. Just watching the 'fish' play, the spectators already have an extremely excited feeling.

 

 

Mr. Nguyen Khang and his girlfriend went to Hon Tam for the first time, patiently waiting to "ride" the dolphin, diving into the deep sea to admire the coral. "The feeling of sitting in the cockpit watching the sea is extremely exciting and enjoyable," said Mr. Khang.
