Hon Chong Promontory

Nha Trang


The narrow granite promontory of Hon Chong offers fine views of the mountainous coastline north of Nha Trang and the nearby islands.

The beach here has a more local flavour than Nha Trang Beach, but the rubbish is unpleasant and it attracts some tour groups. Still, it's fun to watch local kids do Acapulco-style swan dives into the ocean.

There is a reconstructed Ruong house (a wooden residence handmade in the traditional style of the region) and a great cafe.

About 300m south of Hon Chong (towards Nha Trang) and a few dozen metres from the beach is tiny Hon Do (Red Island), which has a Buddhist temple on top. To the northeast is Hon Rua (Tortoise Island), which really does resemble a tortoise. The two islands of Hon Yen (Bird鈥檚-Nest Island) are off in the distance to the east.

A taxi here from the city centre is around 45,000d.
