Khanh Hoa's Global Recognition: Two Beaches Named in Lonely Planet's Top 10
With two magnificent coastlines honored by Lonely Planet among Vietnam's finest, Khanh Hoa continues to solidify its status as a world-class marine destination. As the premier aviation gateway, Cam Ranh International Terminal (CRTC) proudly welcomes global travelers to experience these internationally acclaimed shores.
The renowned travel guide Lonely Planet recently unveiled its list of "10 of the best beaches in Vietnam," praising the country's 3,400km coastline and coral-fringed tropical islands. Among this elite selection, Khanh Hoa proudly claims two spots: the vibrant Nha Trang beach and the pristine Doc Let beach. According to the publication, Nha Trang's central beach stretches for about 6km, offering a lively coastal urban atmosphere alongside familiar stops like the Sailing Club and Louisiane brewhouse where visitors can relax.
For a more tranquil escape, Lonely Planet highly commends Doc Let beach in Dong Ninh Hoa ward. Spanning roughly 18km, this destination captivates visitors with its chalk-smooth white sand and shallow turquoise waters. The surrounding areas are equally inviting, from the colorful alleys and rustic local eateries of Ninh Thuy fishing village in the south, to the serene Ninh Van Bay in the north which is highly recommended for a day trip.
The inclusion of these two destinations—alongside other famous spots like Phu Quoc and My Khe—firmly affirms Khanh Hoa's elite position on the international marine tourism map. As the strategic aviation gateway, Cam Ranh International Terminal (CRTC) is fully prepared to welcome the growing wave of global travelers drawn by this prestigious recognition, ensuring their journey to these world-class shores begins with flawless service and warm hospitality.
