Local Vietnamese have fished from the beaches of Danang, Vietnam, for a very long time. The men use long fishing nets and their strength to pull them out of the sea by walking backward.

It can take many men (and women) to pull in the nets from the sea. The fishermen use rubber belts around their waists and attach them to the rope for additional strength. Basket boats are used to set and store the nets.

A great time to catch the fishermen netting in Da Nang, Vietnam, is at sunrise or sunset.

I wish you safe travels wherever the roads may lead you.

All my best,
