Ca Mau, rendered here as Kamau, is the southernmost province and city of Vietnam, set in the low, watery landscape at the far tip of the Mekong Delta. It is best known for Mui Ca Mau, the very southern point of the country, protected within a national park and UNESCO biosphere reserve of tidal mudflats and mangroves. Nearby, the U Minh Ha forest is a rare expanse of flooded melaleuca woodland rich in birdlife. Ca Mau city is the base for exploring the region by road and by boat along its dense network of canals. Travelers usually arrive by road from Can Tho or Ho Chi Minh City, and there is also a small airport with domestic flights. The climate is tropical, with a dry season from around December to April and a wetter season the rest of the year.

Frequently asked questions

What is Ca Mau known for?
Ca Mau is the southernmost province of Vietnam, known for Mui Ca Mau, the country's southern tip, marked within a national park and biosphere reserve of mangroves and tidal flats. The surrounding Mekong Delta wetlands, the U Minh Ha melaleuca forest and a maze of rivers and canals define the region, which is important for fishing, shrimp farming and birdlife.
How do you get to Ca Mau?
Most travelers reach Ca Mau by road from Ho Chi Minh City or Can Tho, a long drive across the Mekong Delta by bus or car. Ca Mau also has a small airport with domestic flights from Ho Chi Minh City. Within the region, boats along the canals are a common and scenic way to reach outlying areas and the cape.
Can you visit the southern tip of Vietnam?
Yes. Mui Ca Mau, the southernmost point of mainland Vietnam, lies within a national park reachable by boat and boardwalk from Ca Mau city. A marker and viewing tower stand at the cape, surrounded by mangroves. The park is part of a UNESCO biosphere reserve, and guided boat trips are the usual way to explore its waterways.
When is the best time to visit Ca Mau?
The drier months from about December to April are the most comfortable for travel, with easier road and boat conditions. The rest of the year is wetter and more humid, though the wetlands remain green and full of birdlife. As with much of the Mekong Delta, boat trips are weather-dependent, so it is worth checking conditions locally.
