Quy Nhon and Ninh Van Bay

Occupying stunning locations in Central Vietnam and connected via a scenic coastal road that hugs the shoreline, Quy Nhon and Ninh Van Bay are renowned for their combination of seaside serenity, idyllic beaches and access to the inviting azure waters of the South China Sea.

With its charming atmosphere and long sandy beaches, Quy Nhon has long been a favoured spot to unwind amongst the Vietnamese. From its origins as a sleepy fisherman’s hub through to its emergence as a laidback holiday destination catering to the wider global community, it enjoys a distinctly tranquil ambience that continues to this day. The city is lined with leafy boulevards, with its outskirts boasting sweeping, boat-sprinkled bays and crumbling Hindu temples, making it a place best suited to travellers seeking a quiet tropical escape steeped in culture.

Some 150 kilometres south of Quy Nhon, Ninh Van Bay sits along a forest-clad peninsula just north of Nha Trang, jabbing at the South China Sea’s sparkling blue waters. Home to some of Vietnam’s most exclusive luxury resorts, it lies in a harmonious corner of Vietnam where secluded coves converge with pristine, coral-rich waters that delight divers and snorkelling enthusiasts. Perfect for an indulgent honeymoon, travellers come to Ninh Van Bay to immerse themselves in a coastal paradise backed by lush greenery, a place where it’s almost impossible not to come away with a renewed connection to the natural world.
