Visitors can enjoy the beauty of coral reefs when traveling to the central coastal region and even touch them. The season for open-air coral reefs in the region is from the fourth to the sixth lunar month, when tides are at their lowest on days of the full moon and during sunset on the first day of the lunar month.
