Chau Thuan Bien has a gently sloping coastline of about 10km, is an ideal summer destination, famous for its unique “ancient fishing village” in the Central region, which preserves traces of an “ancient ship cemetery” from many centuries ago. What is special about the life of the craft village here?

Currently, there are hundreds of boats from Binh Chau coastal commune going out to sea, fishing far from shore, bringing back fresh seafood in the dawn light, gathering in Chau Thuan Bien village, creating a traditional, colorful sea market lifestyle.

In addition, near the coast of Chau Thuan Bien, there is a rich underwater ecosystem with many species of fish and squid living, especially seaweed that grows strongly from June to August every year, so fishermen are excited because nature has given them "sea blessings". The seaweed plant has a yellow-brown color, often clinging to coral reefs and underwater rocks at a depth of 3m to 6m. When the seaweed grows long and old, floating on the water surface to form a large beach, it is the ideal time to harvest.

Seaweed is both a nutritious food for coastal people and a precious medicinal herb, so it has economic value, creating additional income for the people of Chau Thuan Bien. Large-scale fishermen use ships, boats and oxygen compressors for diving, while small-scale fishermen use basket boats and "homemade floating rafts" to move to coastal waters to collect or dive to cut seaweed.
