If you are looking for a pristine beach with clear water and fewer crowds than the central shoreline, Đầm Bấy – Fun Island is well worth considering. Located on the south-eastern side of Hòn Tre island, this small bay is widely described as the "Mini Maldives" of Nha Trang.
Where is Đầm Bấy – Fun Island?
Đầm Bấy belongs to Hòn Tre island, about 6 km south-east of central Nha Trang. The bay is sheltered behind surrounding hills and islands, so it stays calm and almost wave-free nearly all year. Tourism arrived here relatively late, which is why it still keeps its wild charm with fine white sand and jade-green water.
How to get to Đầm Bấy
The most popular way is a speedboat from the Nha Trang tourist pier, which takes only 15–20 minutes. A traditional wooden boat is slower (about 45 minutes) but more relaxed and scenic. Most visitors join a day tour that already includes the round-trip boat, lunch and water activities.
What to do at Đầm Bấy – Fun Island
- Snorkelling over coral in the shallow, crystal-clear water
- SUP and kayaking around the bay and the mangrove forest
- Swimming – shallow, gently sloping water that is safe for children
- Fishing and sea-urchin catching with the locals
- A seafood BBQ lunch right on the beach
Best season & tips
The ideal time to visit Đầm Bấy is from March to September, when the weather is stable, the sea is calm and the water is clear. Bring sunscreen, swimwear and a waterproof camera. As this is a wild bay with limited on-site services, book an all-inclusive tour so your boat and meals are taken care of.
