Quy Nhon is a wonderful hidden gem on Vietnam’s central coast. There’s a lot to experience here. These are the most breathtaking spots in Quy Nhon that you won’t believe exist until you see them.
If someone described Ky Co Beach, you’d think it’s too good to be true. It’s among the must-visit spots in Quy Nhon for a reason. Soft white sand, water so clear you can see your toes, waves, and a gentle breeze – it all adds up to a wonderful experience. It’s not exactly in Quy Nhon but about 30 minutes from it, yet it’s absolutely worth the trip. To escape the crowds and just breathe in the ocean air, Ky Co Beach is the perfect place to visit. Bring your sunscreen, some snacks, and water. Make sure you have your camera as well – you’ll want to remember this place.
If you want to infuse your beach getaway with a bit of history, the Cham Tower ruins are a must-visit. Scattered all around Quy Nhon, these ancient brick towers were built by the Cham people centuries ago. What’s amazing is that they’re still standing. It’s an amazing experience to walk around these ruins and think about how old they are. Some are set on the hilltops with stunning views over the city and the ocean. Some resorts arrange tours to see the ruins. For instance, Anantara Quy Nhon Villas, one of the luxury resorts in Vietnam, has included it in their exclusive tour packages.
This is a place where nature dazzles. Imagine being in a place surrounded by cliffs, a clear blue sea, and a soothing breeze – this is what you find in Eo Gio. It’s one of the most beautiful places in the region. It’s only about 20 minutes by car from Quy Nhon. Once you’re there, Eco Gio feels like a whole different world. A wooden walkway winds through the rocks, promising you stunning views at every turn. Bring your camera, as there’s beauty all around you that you’ll want to remember. Stick around for a bit, and you might even see goats chilling on the rocks.
A small island that feels like a world away from everything else, Hon Kho is just off the Nhon Hai fishing village, which is about 30 minutes from Quy Nhon. Getting there is possible by boat. Once you get here, you’ll be mesmerised by clear blue waters, soft beach sand, and a peaceful atmosphere. There isn’t much development here, which is exactly what makes it a must-visit place. Things to do here include snorkelling, swimming, and just lying on the beach. Shallow, calm water is perfect for seeing corals and colourful fish. This is the kind of place you’ll never want to leave.
To experience local life at its finest, visit Quy Nhon Night Market. It adds a delightful contrast to Quy Nhon’s serene nature. The energy of this place is addictive. With the colours and the aroma of food, the market makes you glad you decided to visit. Stalls sell a range of items, including clothes, souvenirs, and random little things you didn’t know you needed. It’s a great place to wander around, have a bite, and just soak in the lively market atmosphere. Quy Nhon Night Market is not flashy at all, which is what makes it very Quy Nhon.
