Undiscovered Quy Nhon: The Local Guide to Vietnam's Beach Paradise


Book Description

Quy Nhon is a secret beach paradise. Smack in the middle of Vietnam’s eastern coast, Quy Nhon boasts wide-open soft sand, crystal-blue waters, and super-cute fishing villages nestled into limestone cliffs. All with very few tourists. ​​​​​​​The swimming, snorkeling, and just-chilling are amazing. So is the eating: fresh fish, squid, shrimp, and oysters, for the price of fast food in the US. We Vietnamese people love escaping to Quy Nhon. It’s so relaxing and it’s so cheap, even by Vietnamese standards. Foreigners have no idea about this magical place. Now I’m letting you in on the secret. I’ll guide you around the town and show you the public city beaches, the quirky cafes, and of course the tons of seafood restaurants. We’ll go a bit outside the town (take a private car for just a few dollars) to the quieter, more secluded, even more spectacular beaches. There’s one nestled into a cliff, one with a giant Buddha looking down on it, and another one with bird-egg-like stones. I’ll show you a hidden cafe that looks like a treehouse, perched on a mountain top, with spectacular views over the city and the coast. This is the first Quy Nhon guidebook ever published. There isn’t even one in Vietnamese: In my previous guidebooks, we explored Saigon and Hanoi. I showed you Da Nang years before it became popular. Now let’s discover Quy Nhon. Bring your swim trunks.
