The experience
The day starts at 9:30am at Bai Tranh beach on Hon Mieu island, where you swim in the clear water and rest on the sand for as long as the schedule allows. The beach itself is the main stop here: no village tour, no cultural site, just the water and the chance to photograph the coastline. If you want to try paddleboards or jet skis, those cost extra and you arrange them on the spot.
At 11:30am you move to the floating restaurant on Hon Mieu for lunch. The menu is set: shrimp steamed with lemongrass, sea clam Thai-style, deep-fried fish, squid with onion and chili, fried egg, stir-fried morning glory, Vietnamese sour soup with fish, rice, iced tea and dessert. By 1pm you're on the boat to Hon Tam island, where the mineral mud bath and swimming pool are waiting. The mud is warm, sourced from I-Resort's hot mineral springs, and it's included in your ticket, not sold separately at the resort. You can also bathe in the pool and the waterfall on the island before heading back to Nha Trang.
The tour runs six to eight hours total. Your guide speaks English, Vietnamese, Cantonese or Chinese depending on the departure you book. Hotel pickup is included. The vehicle is air-conditioned. Bring a swimsuit, sunscreen and a change of clothes for after the mud bath.
