Why Visit Quynh Beach?

A Cluster of Coastal Treasures in Nghe An

Quynh Beach, a collective term for seven pristine beaches—Quynh Phuong, Quynh Lien, Quynh Bang, Quynh Luong, Quynh Minh, Quynh Nghia, and Tien Thuy—stretches across Quynh Luu and Hoang Mai wards in Nghe An Province, 65 km from Vinh Ward and 355 km from Hanoi. These unspoiled shores, known for their golden sands and tranquil waters, attract eco-tourists and beach lovers seeking a quieter alternative to Nghe An’s busier Cua Lo Beach. With activities costing $0.50–$35 (12,500–875,000 VND), Quynh Beach offers an authentic coastal experience for sustainable travelers.

Nghe An’s tropical climate (dry season: November–April, 22–32°C or 71.6–89.6°F; rainy season: May–October, 24–36°C or 75.2–96.8°F) enhances the beaches’ appeal, supported by sustainable practices like community-led cleanups and eco-friendly homestays. Legend Travel Group’s tours provide immersive, responsible experiences, blending beach relaxation with Nghe An’s cultural and natural wonders. Book via links in this guide or contact us at WhatsApp: +84825862222 or email: sales@legendtravelgroup.com for a seamless adventure.

Administrative Update

As of July 1, 2025, Vietnam’s administrative reform reorganized Nghe An’s districts into wards and communes. Vinh City is now Vinh Ward, Cua Lo Town is Cua Lo Ward, and Quynh Luu District and Hoang Mai Town are now wards under Nghe An Province. Use “Quynh Beach, Quynh Luu Ward, Nghe An” or “Hoang Mai Ward, Nghe An” for precise navigation.

With over 17 years leading sustainable tourism in Southeast Asia, Legend Travel Group crafts eco-friendly tours to Quynh Beach, combining coastal relaxation with environmental care. Our tours use electric vehicles, support local communities, and feature English-speaking guides sharing insights into Nghe An’s coastal culture and ecosystems. Aligning with Vietnam’s green tourism goals, we offer transparent pricing, free cancellations up to 48 hours before departure, and 24/7 support. Book our eco-tours via links on this page for a responsible journey.
