Introducing Da Nang
Da Nang is the easygoing modern city of central Vietnam. A long run of sand stretches south from My Khe Beach toward Hoi An, the Han River is crossed by a string of lit-up bridges, and seafood restaurants along the beach road sell crab, clams and squid by weight.
It also makes an excellent base. The Son Tra Peninsula rises green above the bay to the north, the Marble Mountains sit on the road to Hoi An, and the Hai Van Pass climbs toward Hue. Plenty of visitors pass straight through. A night or two here is time well spent.
The Son Tra Peninsula rises green above the bay to the north, the Marble Mountains sit on the road to Hoi An, and the Hai Van Pass climbs toward Hue.
Why go
My Khe and the sands running south are wide and clean, backed by a city with good food and easy transport.
The Son Tra Peninsula and the Hai Van Pass give sweeping views over the coast, both within an hour of the center.
The airport sits minutes from downtown, with Hoi An and Hue both an easy drive away.
Things to do
01
Wind up and over the mountains toward Lang Co, with the coastline dropping away below. It is one of Vietnam's most famous roads.
02
Visit Linh Ung Pagoda and its tall white Lady Buddha, and watch the forest canopy for red-shanked douc langurs.
03
Climb through caves and grottoes filled with Buddhist shrines on these five limestone hills south of the city.
04
Choose your dinner from tanks on the pavement and have it grilled with salt, chili and lime.
Before you go
February to August is best for the beach. The rainy season runs roughly September to December, with the greatest typhoon risk in October and November.
Good to know
Hoi An has more atmosphere; Da Nang has the bigger beach and more city comforts. Many travelers spend most nights in Hoi An and one in Da Nang.
On a clear day, yes. The views along the coast are superb, and the pass adds relatively little time compared with the tunnel.
From roughly February to August, yes, when the sea is calmer and the weather more settled. Later in the year, rain and rough water can limit swimming.
