When people usually plan a trip to Vietnam, this is not the first place they think of but this city is an upcoming tourist destination and here is how you can explore the best things to do in Quy Nhon City.

About Quy Nhon City

This destination is not as famous as the other parts of South Asia on a traveller's map or any avid bucket list. But you must know that Quy Nhon City is filled with Vietnamese history and cultural aspects that will make for a great destination for your next holiday. This town has been in existence from the 11th century and later during the 15th century this place was also the ruling Central for a local Emperor. The area was officially founded under the existing name in the late 18th century. If you want to explore the best of what Quy Nhon City has to offer it is better if you take a look at a few Da Nang travel blogs and websites and learn more about how to explore the city before your visit. For instance, a great thing to do to explore this part of Vietnam would be to take a ride on The Vietage.

Snorkelling

When you are on a holiday in this part of Asia, especially Vietnam, it is quite common for travellers to partake in activities that involve water. When you are in this town, you can participate in snorkelling and the underwater sights found here are diverse and colourful, to say the least. You must keep aside at least a day or two for these activities and to do so successfully you must get in touch with Vietnamese diving centres and enjoy the adventure without much hassle or worry from your side. This city has many water sports centres that provide you with basic certification and training at the end of your snorkelling session underwater.

Fishing

The fishing industry is one of the major sources of income in Vietnam and considering that this place is so close to the water, it is not a surprise that this town also embraces fishing as one of its major income sources. Quy Nhon City has many great fishing destinations for locals and travellers both, to enjoy and experience alike. If you are out and about fishing, you will be able to find out more about the daily life of the local fishermen in the area. You can either get your own boat or go out fishing with a group of people. Most of these kinds of excursions last for about two or three hours and some might even go up to a day. The longer excursions on the boat out in the water will provide food and drinks while you are out fishing.

The Phoung Mai Peninsula

You cannot actually visit this Peninsula but you can have a look at it from a distance. Although you won't get to visit the place up close it is pretty interesting to look at from a distance too. The Peninsula has a statue of a Vietnamese hero on it and it is gigantic. The main reason that you will not be able to visit the place is that it is blocked by the mountains. You can take a closer look at the statue if you go there by boat. You will find the boats are gathered right at the base of the pier. Make sure that these boatmen do not overcharge you. The more people there on a boat the cheaper it is for one person to travel therefore wait around until a boat gets full before you head out.
