What is this tour like?
Dream Hills Travel runs this trip out of Bắc Cam Ranh, on Hùng Vương street, into the bay after dark — squid are fished at night, and the operator sells it as a package rather than a boat charter. What you get is deliberately simple: instruction in how to jig for squid, the boat itself, a life jacket and the tackle you need, and a spirit stove with instant noodles so the catch can be eaten on the spot.
The price is 350,000 ₫ per person, written on the page as «350.000đ/1 người (Trọn gói)» — the previous price of 550,000 ₫ is crossed out. Not included: VAT if you need an invoice, extra costs, and the cost of getting to the boat. The page gives no clock times beyond «night fishing», and no age limits are published. The site is in Vietnamese only, and the operator publishes nothing about the season.
