There are many beautiful, untouched islands in the south-central province of Khanh Hoa, home to the famous Nha Trang Bay.

What is special about Diep Son is an 800-meter winding path that is half submerged in the crystal clear jade water, connecting two islets. |

The footpath is around 1.2 meters wide and nearly half a meter below the water surface. Groups of tiny fishes swim around. Sometimes they jump off the water, making the sea surface sparkling. |

Sometimes, the path is completely dry when the water subsides. Locals can walk to a larger islet, aptly named Large Diep Son. |

The other two islets are also stunning with white sandy beaches. |
