Bamboo basket boat tour through the Bay Mau coconut palm waterway at Cam Thanh village, 5 km from Hội An Ancient Town. Local boatmen manoeuvre the circular thuyền thúng between dense coconut palms, weaving and spinning the boats in demonstrations of traditional skill. The 45–60 minute ride typically includes net casting and crab trapping. Book directly at the forest entrance (₫80,000–90,000 per person) rather than through street touts, who charge two to three times more. A popular add-on to a Hội An day.
