 To visit
Ba Trai Dao
Beach, it costs 10 hours by
cruise from Bai Chay
Tourist Wharf. It has that name as Ba Trai Dao Beach
(the three peaches), features three small sand
beaches embracing small islands. These islands, seen
from afar, resemble three peaches. Tourists take
bath in this beach only 2-3 hours in a day as in
other time the beach is lapped by tides.
Legend has it, that fairies escaped from Heaven and
came here for sight-seeing and swimming. The
youngest fairy, who was very pretty and virtuous,
fell in love with a young fisherman. The young fairy
stole three peaches from Heaven for him, that if he
ate, would give him eternal life, allowing them to
live together forever. But while she waited for him
on the island, the King of the Heavens discovered
the robbery and turned the peaches into stone
island. Chastised, the young fairy had to return. |
