Long Hai is a small fishing village in Ba Ria Province and located 30km north-east of Vung Tau. It was a very cloudy morning when we arrived at Long Hai. We also reached Long Hai a little late. So most of the fishing nets have already been picked clean and folded, and most of the catch sorted. Nevertheless, we managed to get a feel of what life is like in the heartlands.
