| Vietnam's
coast-line stretches the entire length of the country,
almost 2000km. Stunning white sandy beaches fringed by
coconut palms and lapped by the warm South China Sea offer
peace and tranquillity. In the past few years a small
selection of international class hotels have been built
along this otherwise undeveloped coastline. These resorts
equal many of their rivals in more popular destinations
yet without the crowds. |
Nha
Trang has a six kilometre main beach of white sand, flanked
at either end by mountains and a cultural backdrop that
features relics of the ancient Cham Kingdom. Dozens of
reportedly pristine diving and snorkelling locations lie
amongst its 71 islands. The day can be spent exploring
some of the islands by boat or relaxing on the beach.
There are a large choice of hotels and restaurants.
China Beach runs from the base
of the Hai Van Pass to Hoi An in central Vietnam. It was
made famous in 1965 when the US Marines landed there to
officially start their occupation of Southern Vietnam.
|
 |
There
is one five star resort available on the beach - Ana
Mandara.
Phan Thiet Beach is a three-hour
drive north of Ho Chi Minh City and offers long stretches
of sandy palm fringed beaches. This tranquil area is home
to small communities of fisherman. Only recently starting
to be developed there is a small choice of two-four star
properties and an international golf course. |
