Nha Trang to Vinh Hy: Q&A
1/ Where is Vinh Hy?
Vinh Hy is a small fishing village in Vinh Hai Commune, Ninh Hai District, Ninh Thuan Province — nestled entirely within the core zone of Nui Chua National Park. It is one of the very few bays in Vietnam surrounded by dry tropical forest, which keeps the water extraordinarily clear and virtually free of pollution. People come to Vinh Hy to snorkel over coral reefs, paddle kayaks, or simply sit by the bay with a plate of freshly caught seafood, watching the calm turquoise water do nothing in particular.
2/ How many kilometers is it from Nha Trang to Vinh Hy?
The distance from Nha Trang to Vinh Hy is approximately 97.4 km (about 60 miles).
Via the Nha Trang – Cam Lam Expressway connecting to the North–South Expressway (Eastern Route), the total travel time by private car is around 1 hour 55 minutes — significantly faster than the old National Highway 1A.

4/ What is the best way to travel from Nha Trang to Vinh Hy?

Booking a private car lets you leave when you want, stop for photos along the way, or add a detour to an interesting spot before reaching Vinh Hy Bay — all without waiting or sitting next to strangers.

NHA TRANG TO VINH HY BY PRIVATE CAR
Once you have confirmed your itinerary and pickup location, your driver will be waiting at your hotel or chosen address in Nha Trang. To make sure the journey gets off to a smooth start, the driver arrives 5 minutes ahead of schedule, helps load your luggage, and sets off with you toward Vinh Hy.
On board, sit back and enjoy the air conditioning and comfortable seats. If you want to stop for a coffee or a restroom break along the way, just say the word — the driver is happy to accommodate. On arrival in Vinh Hy, you will be taken directly to your resort or requested address. Before parting ways, the driver checks the vehicle thoroughly to make sure nothing has been left behind.

Car Collection & Pick-Up Point
Your private car will be dispatched to any address in Nha Trang City, including downtown hotels and beachfront resorts.
If you need pickup from two or more locations, please let us know in advance. A small surcharge may apply if the pickup points are far apart or if there are multiple additional stops.
During The Transfer
The Nha Trang – Cam Lam Expressway connecting to the North–South Expressway runs smoothly with minimal congestion — you can lean back for a nap or simply watch the scenery roll by through the window. Once the car exits the expressway into Ninh Thuan Province, the landscape shifts to the dry, rugged terrain of Nui Chua mountain range — and then, almost without warning, the blue water of Vinh Hy Bay opens up in front of you.
If you would like to stop at any sightseeing spots along the way, please let us know in advance via WhatsApp or Zalo so we can plan accordingly. Note that stops outside the main route may extend the journey and incur a small surcharge depending on the location. A few suggestions if you have extra time:
-
Binh Tien Beach: A pristine, largely undiscovered beach close to Vinh Hy, with crystal-clear water — ideal for a quick stop and some photos in the morning before heading down to the bay.
-
Nam Cuong Sand Dunes (Phan Rang): Golden dunes near Phan Rang city, well-suited for groups departing early who want to explore Ninh Thuan's landscape before reaching the coast.
-
Po Klong Garai Cham Towers: A cluster of ancient Cham towers over 700 years old, standing on a hilltop in Phan Rang — a quick detour that leaves a strong impression both architecturally and historically.
-
Vinh Hy Bay: The main destination — where you can take a glass-bottom boat over coral reefs, go snorkeling, paddle a kayak, or simply sit by the waterfront and eat seafood pulled straight from the sea that morning.
Beyond Vinh Hy, if you wish to continue your journey onward, we also provide private car transfers to Da Lat, Mui Ne, and other destinations across Central and Southern Vietnam.
