Discovering Nui Chua Stone Park: A pristine masterpiece on the Central coast
Tucked away along the stunning coastal road connecting with Khanh Hoa, the Stone Park in Nui Chua National Park offers a fascinating natural space forged over millions of years. From the gateway of Cam Ranh International Terminal (CRTC), an awe-inspiring journey of pristine exploration awaits travelers.
Located along the coastal road of Vinh Hy Bay, the Ninh Thuan Stone Park (within Nui Chua National Park) is emerging as a highly appealing destination for souls passionate about authentic natural beauty. Although only open to tourism since 2022, this 5-hectare area has quickly made its mark thanks to its majestic landscapes. The most unique highlight of the park is an array of naturally formed, multifaceted rock formations, sculpted by wind and seawater over millions of years, stacked amidst a dry dwarf forest ecosystem. The rocky outcrops overlooking the vast blue sea create countless spectacular photo opportunities amidst the wild nature.
To fully experience this scenery, visitors purchase an entrance ticket at a very reasonable price of 40,000 VND per person (about 1.6 USD for international tourists). Due to the rugged terrain and year-round hot, dry climate, the ideal times to visit are before 9:00 AM or after 3:00 PM, when the sun is mild and the sea breeze is cool. Travelers are highly recommended to wear grippy sports shoes, hats, sunscreen, and bring plenty of water. Most importantly, to ensure absolute safety, it is mandatory to follow warning signs and avoid risky climbing or posing near precipitous cliff edges.
More than just a standalone stop, the Stone Park perfectly connects with neighboring attractions such as Hang Rai, Vinh Hy Bay, and Lo O stream, creating a diverse eco-tourism experience chain. Sustainable development strategies, strictly tied to landscape and biodiversity conservation, are being promoted to turn this area into a model ecological site. As the vital transport gateway connecting global travelers to the South Central Coast, Cam Ranh International Terminal (CRTC) is proud to be the first touchpoint, providing seamless travel infrastructure to kickstart any journey discovering these enchanting natural masterpieces.
