Dinh Cậu

A small shrine perched on a rocky outcrop at the mouth of the Dương Đông river, and one of the oldest spots on the island. Fishermen still come to pray for calm seas before heading out. You climb a short flight of steps to the blue-and-white shrine for harbour views and, if you time it, a good sunset over the fishing fleet. It takes twenty minutes, costs nothing, and sits right by the night market — easy to fold into an evening. Quiet and local rather than a big attraction, but worth the short stop.
