Qui Nhon

Nestled along the coast halfway between Nha Trang and Hoi An, Qui Nhon is in the midst of a government-planned, tourist-targeted revival. The main beach is one of the cleanest city beaches in Vietnam, hardly developed and well maintained. A boardwalk shrouded in greenery runs parallel to the ocean. Most tourists visiting the region also head 10km (6mi) south of the city to Bai Xep beach, which has become famous throughout Vietnam for its natural beauty.

Overview

However, the best time to travel to Quy Nhon is in March and April because the atmosphere is really great. I suggest you shouldn’t travel to Quy Nhon by airplane because the airport is too far from the city center. Instead, try to go to Quy Nhon by coach or by train. For the souvenir, you should buy “Banh it la gai”, grilled chopped fish, sour meatballs, for your family and friends.
