Ca Mau Cape National Park was established in 2003. The park covers nearly 42,000 hectares across three districts of Ngoc Hien, Nam Can, and Phu Tan.

It is the largest primary mangrove forest in Vietnam. This area serves as a breeding ground for valuable aquatic species and a stopover for many migratory water birds. It was recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2009 and became a Ramsar Site in 2012.
