With twin beaches separated by a strip of fine, white sand, Nha Trang’s Twin Beach is a haven for locals’ livelihoods and a captivating destination for tourists, thanks to its unique natural charm.
Nha Trang’s Twin Beach is a must-visit destination if you find yourself in Nha Trang. Due to limited tourism, this place retains its pristine, natural, and enchanting beauty, leaving a lasting impression on anyone fortunate enough to experience it.
Nha Trang’s Twin Beach is situated within the territory of the swallow island Hon Noi, in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa Province, approximately 25km from the mainland. Hon Noi Island boasts precious sea resources and showcases unique beauty with its extensive white sandy shores surrounding two pristine beaches. Referred to as the only twin beach in Vietnam, this place is one of the must-visit tourist destinations in Nha Trang, offering a distinctive charm you won’t want to miss.
I was wondering what to do in Nha Trang. Look no further than Hon Noi’s Twin Beach. The golden time to visit this enchanting place is from March to September—the prime months when everyone is gearing up for vacations. During this period, Yen Island shines like a precious gem with its pleasant weather and minimal rain, making it the perfect destination to unwind, soak in the beauty of the beach, and embark on the most beautiful island swallow visits.
The Hon Noi Yen Island tour offers two options:
The island restricts the maximum number of visitors to 150 people, so if you plan to visit, it’s advisable to register 1-2 days in advance. The boat departs at 7:30 from Cau Da Port to the Yen Sao Port area, with a travel time of approximately 1.5 hours.

Visiting Nha Trang’s Twin Beach not only treats you to a dreamy landscape but also offers many exciting experiences you wouldn’t want to miss out on.
Not only is it renowned in Nha Trang, but Hon Noi’s Twin Beach is also a beach with a unique beauty rarely found in Vietnam. Besides the crystal-clear water revealing the sea bottom, where the sea and the sky harmoniously blend, creating a refreshing panorama for the coastal city, Twin Beach also impresses visitors with its two naturally formed streams, dividing into one warm and one cold side separated by a pristine white sandy path.
In such an ideal setting, beach bathing and coral diving in Nha Trang are essential activities to enjoy the vibrant coral world, witness small schools of fish playfully swimming, and catch glimpses of them darting behind the sparkling coral branches.
After indulging in various recreational activities, you can take a break and relax in a leaf-covered bird-watching hut. Sit quietly, savor the scent of nature, listen to the gentle whispers of the sea, and watch flocks of swiftlets gracefully soar through the sky.
March and August are also the harvesting seasons for swiftlet nests. If you visit Nha Trang’s double beach during this period, you’ll have the opportunity to learn and witness the fascinating process of harvesting swiftlet nests guided by knowledgeable staff.
Following the stone steps, you will be led to the summit of Du Ha Mountain, rising 90m above sea level. This is an ideal spot to fully appreciate the magnificent landscape crafted by the artistic hands of nature.
From the summit of Du Ha Mountain, as your gaze extends into the distance, you will encounter the simple, everyday sight of fishing boats heading out to sea. This view imparts an indescribable sense of tranquility, an experience that, once encountered, makes one yearn to linger forever. Standing amidst the vast landscape, with majestic mountains and expansive waters, humans suddenly seem minuscule, delicate, and strangely enchanting.
For the adventurous souls, an unmissable experience awaits – traversing the undulating rock walls of the twin beaches through bridges crafted from bamboo and gracefully curved wood. Don’t forget to capture those impressively Instagrammable moments, freezing this unforgettable experience in time.
Hurry up and book your upcoming trip to Nha Trang Twin Beach – the only double beach in Vietnam- to discover the swallow’s nest, the swimming experience, and the beautiful natural scenery that nature has favored. For you here!
