Introduction

Prepare for the undisturbed glamour of the Bai Tranh beach in Nha Trang. With Asia King Travel, you will be exposed to some invigorating travel tips, handy advice, and exciting activity ideas for a lifetime memory.

About Bai Tranh Beach

Bai Tranh Beach is located on Hon Mieu Island, within Nha Trang Bay, Khanh Hoa Province, just about 5 km from Nha Trang city center. It is easily accessible by canoe from Cau Da Port. Known as one of the region’s most pristine beaches, Bai Tranh has become a favorite destination thanks to its rustic yet captivating beauty, often compared to a “sea fairy” gently resting in the coastal sunshine and breeze.

Visitors arrive to be greeted by a very refreshing ambiance with a soft white sand beach and crystal clear waters; so transparent is the water that an onlooker can see every grain of sand lying beneath it. The small islands block any sort of wind that would have otherwise made the sea restless. One thing special about Bai Tranh is that it has a rather gently sloping beach stretching some 100 meters toward the sea until the water reaches an adult's chest. This makes the beach particularly safe for children and those who don't feel quite sure about their swimming abilities.

Banana Boat Ride

Being an ideal attraction for a group of friends or family, the banana boat will never run out of fun. Being seated in a large inflatable raft shaped like a banana, a speedboat pulls it fast enough to cross the waves. The fun lies in trying to keep balance, as the raft tilts and bounces, creating moments to laugh at and to remember. The price of a raft is about 500,000 VND, and it can accommodate 4-6 persons.
