City & Place Guide

Unspoiled beaches, ancient towers, and authentic Vietnamese coastal life.

Tuy Hoa is the quiet capital of Phu Yen Province on Vietnam's south-central coast, often overlooked by travelers rushing between Da Nang and Nha Trang. That anonymity is its greatest asset — wide sandy beaches, clear water, and a relaxed pace that feels genuinely local rather than tourist-polished.

The city sits at the mouth of the Da Rang River, flanked by dramatic rocky headlands and rice paddies that tumble toward the sea. Landmarks like the Cham tower of Nhan Mountain and the photogenic Dai Lanh lighthouse reward those who venture slightly beyond the shoreline. Phu Yen gained wider fame as the filming location for the beloved Vietnamese film 'Yellow Flowers on the Green Grass,' drawing domestic visitors who come to see its golden rice fields and honeysuckle landscapes.

  • •Bai Mon – Mui Dien Cape — Vietnam's easternmost mainland point with a historic lighthouse and sweeping sea views.
  • •Thap Nhan Cham Tower — well-preserved 12th-century Cham tower perched on a hill with panoramic city views.
  • •Long Beach (Bai Truong) — long, uncrowded stretch of sand ideal for swimming and sunrise watching.
  • •Da Rang River Mouth — scenic estuary perfect for boat rides and fresh seafood at riverside stalls.
  • •Vung Ro Bay — sheltered emerald bay with wartime history and excellent snorkeling near Mui Dien.
  • •O Loan Lagoon — serene coastal lagoon renowned for fresh oysters and peaceful kayaking.

Getting around: Tuy Hoa has a small but well-connected train station on the main Hanoi–Ho Chi Minh City rail line, making rail the easiest long-distance option. Within the city, Grab (ride-hailing) works reliably, while xe om (motorbike taxis) and metered taxis are plentiful and inexpensive. Renting a motorbike is the best way to reach outlying beaches, the cape, and O Loan Lagoon independently.

Best time: Visit between January and August for sunny skies and calm seas, as Phu Yen is hit by typhoons and heavy rain from September through December.

Local food: Don't miss banh hoi long heo (steamed rice noodles with pork organs), fresh O Loan oysters grilled with scallion oil, and ca ngua (horse mackerel) dishes that showcase the province's exceptional seafood.
