Home to a total of 62 coastal turbines, each with a height of over 80 metres, the wind farm located in Vinh Trach Dong commune, Bac Lieu province has developed into a popular regional tourist attraction.
 

Bac Lieu wind farm was the first wind power project in Vietnam built in 2010. 

It is considered one of the largest wind power projects in the country. This is also the first wind farm in Southeast Asia built on the continental shelf, with 62 turbines on the coast. Each turbine is about 80m high and its propellers are 42m long.

With a landscape as beautiful as a European sky, the area quickly became a tourist attraction.

The arrangement of the turbines combined with local roads makes travel easy, and visitors can go from one area to another without any problems.

The most suitable time to visit is early morning or late afternoon, when you can enjoy the sunrise and sunset over the sea.

Bac Lieu’s wind power area has been recognised by the Mekong Delta Tourism Association as an outstanding tourist destination in the Delta, with nine typical tourist attractions.

Tourists enjoy visiting the path that leads to the turbines in the middle of the sea. Since first opening in 2016, the wind farm has become a popular check-in point for travelers during their visits to the southern province. 

The location is the largest wind farm nationally, with the wind turbines covering an area of 500 hectares along the coastline.

Seeing the possibility of developing this place into an attractive tourist destination, Bac Lieu Province has combined eco-tourism, forestry and aquaculture.
