Quang Ngai is not only an economic hub in the Central region with the Dung Quat oil refinery, Vietnam's first oil refinery, but also a beautiful coastal city with a coastline stretching approximately 129km. Nature has generously provided this area with a vast seafood resource and a series of incredibly beautiful beaches.
Beautiful Beaches in Quang Ngai
Ly Son Beach
Ly Son is perhaps the most famous destination in Quang Ngai for those who love the open sea. The entire Ly Son Island is divided into two small islands: Big Island and Small Island. Often likened to a gem in the heart of the open sea, the beauty of Ly Son's sea comes from the crystal-clear water that allows you to see all the way to the bottom, along with the gentle waves. In some shallow areas, you can even admire coral reefs near the shore just by wearing snorkeling goggles.

When visiting Ly Son, you definitely cannot miss Tò Vò Gate, an arched stone gate on the island formed entirely by nature without any human intervention. This natural stone gate is also the number one virtual living photo spot for anyone, especially young people when visiting Ly Son.

Sa Huynh Beach
Formerly known as Sa Hoang, meaning 'golden sand', Sa Huynh has long been famous as the largest salt field in Central Vietnam, as well as a sea area with its own unique beauty. Unlike other beaches in Quang Ngai, the sand at Sa Huynh is not white but has a shiny golden color. Each sand dune sparkles with a golden glow under the sun's rays, winding along the curved tongue-shaped beach. Visiting Sa Huynh, tourists can immerse themselves in the fresh air with a hint of the sea, admiring the rows of coconut trees running along the sandy shore.

These are the traditional cultural features passed down through many generations of people here, the beauty of time, the breath of history that not every place can preserve completely as here.
