Ky Co Beach

Ky Co Beach is a well-known tourist destination situated in the central town of Quy Nhon, Vietnam, about 25 km northeast of the town's center in the Nhon Ly island commune. The beach is celebrated for its unique beauty, characterized by a crescent-shaped coastline, crystal-clear turquoise waters, stunning waves, and stretches of white sand. The coastline is flanked by rocky mountains on three sides, with one side facing the sea and rocks. These features, along with the distinct shades of green and blue water, make Ky Co Beach a picturesque location.

During low tide, the rocks surrounding the beach reveal caves and form beautiful pools. Visitors can rent a canoe to explore the coral at nearby islets or opt for diving services to walk under the sea among swimming fish. Other activities include jet skiing, fishing, or simply relaxing on the beach. There is a long wooden bridge in the middle of the beach, which is now primarily used for photography.

One of the highlights of visiting Ky Co Beach is the opportunity to witness the spectacular sunrise or sunset. Despite its popularity, the beach is not overly crowded, especially in the morning hours. It is, however, recommended to visit the beach in the early morning or on weekdays to avoid any potential crowds.

The beach is well-maintained, with staff ensuring it remains free from plastic, making it one of the least polluted beaches in Vietnam. Amenities for visitors include numerous beach chairs and canopies available for rent, a clean bathroom with multiple places to shower off the sand, and a restaurant located on the beach.

To reach Ky Co Beach from Quy Nhon's center, one can rent a motorbike, which is the most convenient option. Alternatively, there are tours available that include a boat service to the island, a meal, and diving.

While there are limited accommodation options near Ky Co Beach, the town of Quy Nhon offers more variety in terms of food, entertainment, and lodging. Seafood is a specialty of the region, with dishes featuring grilled sea urchins, abalone, snails, scallops, and blood cockles. However, the restaurant service in Ky Co is still developing, so more dining options can be found in downtown Quy Nhon.
