Lap An Lagoon is a large brackish lagoon in Hue province, with an area of about 800 hectares.
The lagoon is located right at the foot of Hai Van Pass, surrounded by the majestic Bach Ma mountain range, in front of the gentle Lang Co Bay with emerald green water.
Not only famous for its poetic beauty, Lap An Lagoon is also the source that supplies a large amount of seafood for the fishermen of this area. Lap An Lagoon is known as the "Oyster Kingdom of Hue".
According to the locals, the oyster in this place is a gift from nature, receiving absolutely no human influence, and is available all year round without any farming effort. That is why many people joke that if one does not eat oysters in Lap An, they cannot claim to have come here./.
