- Can Gio Mangrove Biosphere Reserve - Mangrove is the most prominent plant in Can Gio Island. This type of plant thrives in brackish water, such as in estuaries. Due to its unique living environment, the stilt root structure of mangroves helps the plant absorb oxygen and nutrients from the tide. Mangroves not only protect shoreline soil from erosion but also provide a habitat for many sea creatures, some of which offer significant economic benefits to the locals.
There are two ways to explore the mangrove forest: by road or by boat. You can walk along the winding roads under the shade of thousands of mangroves, or you can sit in a small boat and navigate the canals to every corner of the forest. A peaceful atmosphere with fresh air is what all tourists will experience when exploring Can Gio Mangrove Forest.

Can Gio Mangrove Biosphere Reserve - Monkey Island
Monkey Island is another must-see in the Can Gio Biosphere Reserve. Most monkeys on this island are friendly and adorable. They move nimbly through the trees, run on the ground, approach visitors, and look at them with curious eyes.
The monkeys are strictly protected, so visitors should follow some rules when interacting with them, such as maintaining a suitable distance and not feeding them. Some monkeys might be quite aggressive, so it is best not to try to touch them. -
