Da Nhay Beach, Coastal beach in Bo Trach district, Vietnam.
Da Nhay Beach stretches for about one kilometer along a coastline marked by large stone formations rising from clear water next to National Highway 1A. The area provides restaurants serving fresh seafood and several lodging options for those spending time here.
During the Le Dynasty, this coastal stretch held military importance as a defensive position along central Vietnam's shoreline. Its strategic location connected the area to larger trade routes and regional defense systems of that era.
Fishing families work from this shore in much the same way they have for generations, and visitors can watch boats depart each morning. The daily rhythm of the community still revolves around the sea and its bounty.
The best time to visit is April through September when weather conditions are stable and water conditions are favorable. The beach has adequate shaded spots among the stone formations, and nearby restaurants serve daily specials.
The Coc well sits within the beach area and mysteriously produces fresh water despite being meters away from the ocean. The water comes from an underground spring and has served locals as a reliable drinking source for centuries.
