Discovering Cau Cave that is located in Ly Son island district at the foot of Thoi Loi ancient volcano. The million-year-old Ly Son Cave has been attracting tourists by its magnificent wild beauty.
Cau Cave or "Hang Cau" is adjacent to Hang Pagoda, extends to the east along the sea and is located under a volcanic crater that erupted millions of years ago, with a diameter of 0.35 km and a height of 149 m. This is the ideal natural "observatory" in Ly Son island district.
Some people think that it is named "Hang Cau" because the sea here has a lot of jelly, a species of seaweed that can be processed into jelly, which is an attractive dessert and cooling dish. There is also an explanation that the name "Hang Cau" is because under the coral reefs there are many seafood, there are floating rapids running from the shore to the deep sea, sitting on the rapids can both fish and catch seafood.
No matter how it is explained, Ly Son Cave still deserves to be on the list of masterpieces of nature. On one side stands the rock formations that have been eroded by the wind and waves, and the other side is the immense sea of waves. Standing on the cliffs, visitors can see a lot of seaweed clinging to the moving coral reefs in the water.
In particular, the underground water flowing from the crater of Thoi Loi crater forms a fresh waterfall that flows tens of meters long down the side of Hang Cau cliff, creating a charming landscape. Therefore, tourists from all over the world love to come here to have fun and camp overnight to enjoy the wonderful natural beauty of the sea and islands.
