Beaches and Islands of Vietnam Holidays
Vietnam, with its long 3,000km coastline and palm-fringed tropical islands, is home to some of the finest coastal scenery and beaches in South East Asia. The majority of the most popular resort areas are to be found in the centre and south of the country but there are also two main islands, namely Phu Quoc and Con Dao, where a number of beach hotels are also located. In the central region of Vietnam the white-sand China Beach which stretches from the city of Danang south to the historic trading port of Hoi An, is lined with luxurious beach properties and has a quiet and relaxed vibe. Further south, the well-known beaches at Nha Trang and Phan Thiet, the latter a morning’s drive from Ho Chi Minh City, are popular choices with beautiful settings and a good range of upmarket hotels. However, the ultimate tropical retreats are the islands of Con Dao and Phu Quoc which can be reached by air from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Can Tho in the Mekong Delta. Here, the calm crystal-clear waters and soft sandy beaches are ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Much of the tiny Con Dao archipelago is also a pristine national park. Pettitts Travel specialises in providing bespoke tailor-made holidays to Vietnam and tours including Vietnamese beach escapes.
