Vietnam's Squid Catching Season
Squid fishing in Vietnam follows a seasonal pattern shaped by coastal currents and traditional fishing calendars, varying by region:
- South Central Coast (Bình Thuận, Ninh Thuận, Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu): the main squid season typically runs from March to May, with a secondary wave from July to August. Coastal fishing villages such as Tuy Phong, La Gi, Mũi Né, Hòn Rơm and Bình Châu are traditional squid-jigging areas, particularly active from January to June each year.
- Southwest waters (Kiên Giang): squid and cuttlefish are present nearly year-round, but catches increase notably from March to July, at the end of the northeast monsoon season when conditions favor squid fishing.
- North Central Coast (Nghệ An, Hà Tĩnh) and South Central (Quy Nhơn/Nhơn Châu): near-shore squid fishing (locally known as "mực nháy") typically takes place in the early morning hours, from around 3–4 AM, using small boats close to shore.
Buyers planning shipments around peak freshness and volume periods may wish to align orders with these regional seasonal windows. Baseafood can advise on current sourcing regions and expected volumes based on the time of year.
