The activities on and around the beach are the best things to do in Quy Nhon. This region has some of Vietnam’s most beautiful beaches. Relax on the beach with a book, visit islands, or go snorkeling.

1. Stay overnight in Bai Xep

Although Quy Nhon is not touristy, staying in Bai Xep is more enjoyable and authentic. Bai Xep is located 12 kilometers from the city center, in a small fishing village. You can feel the true authentic atmosphere of the fishing village here. Besides, other good things include relaxing on the beach and taking a boat trip to a nearby island to snorkel.

2. Explore beaches

There are many beaches in this area, besides Bai Xep. Beach hopping is one of the best things to do in Quy Nhon Vietnam, where you drive along the coast and stop at various beaches to enjoy yourself.

Queen Beach (or Egg Beach) is another beautiful beach in Quy Nhon. The beach is only a few minutes drive from the center of Han Mac Tu Memorial Park, named after a famous Vietnamese poet. When you arrive at the beach, you notice the seashores are lined with flat and many egg-shaped stones, hence the name. It is not only a place for tourists to relax but also has an incredible ocean view. As a result, visiting beautiful beaches in Quy Nhon is a must-do during your trip.

3. Island hopping

Hon Kho also serves as a turtle conservation center. The island is located 15 kilometers from Quy Nhon town in the Nhon Hai Commune. Visitors must take a 10-15 minute boat ride from Nhon Hai’s port to reach the island. Like the rest of Quy Nhon, Hon Kho has a beautiful, soft, white sandy beach and clear blue waters.

4. Snorkeling to see the corals in Hon Kho

Snorkeling to see the corals, swimming in the ocean, taking a relaxing walk on the boardwalk, and taking scenic photos or selfies are all popular activities here. Exploring the rocky mountain and visiting the sandbar that leads to the island are also worthwhile experiences. Because fishing is the primary occupation, visitors can sample fresh and reasonably priced seafood.

5. Sunset on Eo Gio

Another fantastic thing about Quy Nhon Vietnam is watching the beautiful sunset over the ocean. Eo Gio is the best place to do this. You can, of course, visit this location during the day.

Eo Gio is where the rocks meet the ocean and stretch out over the water. This scene creates a stunning seascape of tangled cliffs plunging into the water. Although you cannot swim here, the pass is a lovely place to contemplate nature and enjoy the cool air. It’s an excellent place for tourists, especially young people and adventure seekers, to take memorable photos during their trip.

6. Dune sliding

Mui Ne isn’t the only place in Vietnam with massive dunes that make you feel you’ve landed in the desert. The Phuong Mai dunes are enormous and can be found near the Nhon Ly beach. You can not only take beautiful photos here, but you can also enjoy sandboarding on the dunes.

A visit to these dunes can combine with a visit to Hai Nam fishing village. A charming and authentic town with a beautiful beach and island in front of it.

7. Cham towers

There are several Cham Towers near Quy Nhon Vietnam. These are from the same period and culture as the temples in My Son, near Hoi An. They are easy to spot while driving through this area because they are usually on top of a hill. From afar, such an old building on a hill is a magnificent sight. In the town of Quy Nhon, there is also a Cham tower on the beach. Thap Banh It and Thap Doi are the two most well-known Cham towers in the area.

8. Thap Banh It

If you want to see it, go to Banh It, a Champa tower perched on a hill about 15 minutes outside town. Visitors can see the tower and get a panoramic view of the coast, rice paddies, and hills from the top of the hill.
