Thai An embankment, located in Thai An village, Vinh Hai commune, Ninh Hai district, Ninh Thuan province, is a destination that still retains its pristine beauty. It is famous for its vast vineyards and traditional fishing village, where the people still maintain a lifestyle closely connected to the sea.
"When I arrived at the fishing village at dawn, I didn't see any staged scenes or tourist services. Everything was the real life of the fishermen. Listening to the sounds of the waves and the laughter of the locals, I felt a sense of peace, closeness, and authenticity," Phong shared.
The sunrise bathes the Thai An embankment in golden light, where the rhythm of life in the fishing village begins in peaceful tranquility.
At dawn, before the first rays of sunlight appear, fishing boats return after a long night at sea, bringing with them fresh catches of seafood. The atmosphere in the fishing village becomes unusually lively with the buying, selling, and sorting of fish and shrimp right on the beach.
The sound of waves crashing and the lively chatter of laughter create a characteristic dawn symphony of the fishing village.
Harmony with nature and people
The period from February to September each year is the calm season with little rain, making it ideal for experiencing life in a fishing village. The locals are known for their friendliness and hospitality. Tourists can easily strike up conversations, help them pull in the nets, learn how to sort seafood, or even enjoy traditional dishes right on the beach.
Phong recounted: "The people in the fishing village are very friendly and approachable, so don't forget to strike up a conversation with them and help pull in the nets." It is this sincerity and simplicity of the locals that creates a unique beauty, making visitors feel like they are coming home.
The gentle smiles of the fishermen are what leave a lasting impression on visitors.
The journey of self-discovery
For many people, travel is about discovering new things. But for Phong, the trip to Thai An embankment was a journey to rediscover simple and authentic values. "Sometimes you're too busy to pay attention to that, but when you go to the fishing village at dawn, you focus more on watching the sunrise and the sky, and listening to the sounds of life," he shared.
Thai An embankment is not only a place to watch the sunrise or experience life in a fishing village, but also a place for each person to find balance in their soul. Amidst the majestic natural scenery and genuine people, we learn to appreciate the simple things and find joy in the most ordinary moments.
