The unspoiled beauty of Son Dung beach

Located outside the urbanization, Son Dung beach still retains its natural beauty and has not been explored for tourism. Son Dung has a special geographical position, the beach is located deep in the bay, surrounded by about 20 large and small islands, creating a natural breakwater. Considered as "a bay within a bay", the sea here is really calm that the water surface is as blue as a giant mirror reflecting Van Ninh sky. Son Dung beach is also safe and convinient with all activities like swimming, diving, playing ... are available.

Coming to Son Dung, visitors can enjoy walking, swimming, kayaking, diving to explore coral reefs...

When tourists arrive at Son Dung beach, they will feel as if they have landed in the center of Robinson's island. The allure of the azure water, white beach, and vivid coral reefs will make you want to stay forever.
Visiting Son Dung for the first time, Hoang Thuy Duong (born in 1991), a travel blogger, said: "I came to Son Dung on a beautiful sunset afternoon, it seemed like it had just rained, so the scenery was extremely magical. It's a bit lost in the vast sea of the sky, but the attraction is very unique."

Son Dung beach is peaceful all year round, the weather is fresh and cool, so visitors can visit this place at any time. Visiting Son Dung, visitors can combine to explore many other places of Van Phong Bay such as: Ong beach, Dai Lanh Beach, Mui Doi, Diep Son Island...

However, to get to Son Dung, from the center of Nha Trang city, visitors have to come Dam Mon port, then continue to board a boat on Van Phong bay and then rafts to Son Dung beach. Therefore, choosing a sunny day is still the most ideal for beach activities. Although the road is somewhat arduous, it will take visitors through a journey through many terrains and landscapes with stretching rice fields, white sand dunes and a hidden deep sea bay with blue sky.

Thuy Duong also had very peaceful experiences in Son Dung: "In the early morning, walking along the beach, I saw a whole school of fish swimming in clear water. The most peaceful days are when I wear diving suit to swim with fish in the ocean."

The sea here is peaceful and warm all year round, the water is clear, so diving to explore coral reefs are very smoothly.

The bay is famous for its variety of coral reefs of different sizes and colors. Just stepping into the water can see the small coral reefs. But when diving in the distance, the deeper you go, the more impressive, colorful and impressive coral reefs can be discovered. Seeing sea creatures in the depths of the water with your own eyes is a wonderful experience when diving in here.
