These black rocks have a cylindrical shape after years of having been honed by the seawater and become smooth. From afar, the cliff resembles a massive beehive near the beach. There is no human involvement in this natural wonder. When visiting Da Dia Reef, make sure to catch the sunrise over the sea to view the strange black stones' iridescent golden tint.

Da Dia Reef in Phu Yen, along with Giant's Causeway on the northeast coast of Ireland, Órganos on the island of La Gomera, Fingal Cave on Staffa Island, Scotland, and Jusangjeolli reef in Korea, are one of only five reefs in the world with lava eruptions creating this beautiful shape. That proves that nature has favored Phu Yen, Vietnam in creating such a marvelous treasure.

Phu Yen has become a very attractive destination for tourists to camp overnight. Not only tourists could wake up to the sunrise, they could also enjoy the local fresh cuisine special hand-picked by the fishermen while witnessing these magnificent scenes.
