Cham Island offers a gentle introduction to diving in Vietnam. We typically find a good mix of hard and soft corals here, with plenty of small reef fish like damselfish and parrotfish zipping around. Depths range from 8 to 33 metres, making it suitable for newer divers looking for a relaxed experience or those keen on longer bottom times. It’s a solid spot for an easy day trip out of Hoi An.
