Ham Ninh commune is located on the east of the island. Mountains and
forests are at the back and the immense sea at the front. People live
by Ham channel. Houses here remain primitive features with cottage
roofs and bamboo wattles. The community life relies on pearl diving,
catching holothurians and netting crabs. Formerly, people came here to
do fishing and then formed this village. Ham Ninh is a safe and sound
wharf for boats. Sail junks and wooden barges from the land moor here
to load goods and seafoods to transfer to other places. The sea is
still shallow several hundreds of meters far from Ham Ninh wharf.
