Hon Rua - Vinh Hy: Wildly Pristine and Poetically Enchanting

A wildly pristine and poetically enchanting place with such cool, crystal-clear blue waters.

Vinh Hy Turtle Island is like a newly discovered rough gem, possessing the dreamy and untouched beauty of nature.
 

Turtle Beach, also known as Vinh Hy Hom Beach, is a pristine and peaceful beach located in Ninh Hai District, Ninh Thuan Province. Traveling to Hom Beach this summer will dispel the heat and offer many exciting experiences. Hon Rua Beach in Ninh Thuan is not yet known to many tourists because this location has not been heavily exploited for tourism. This is also a special feature that gives the scenery here an untouched, tranquil natural beauty, with azure blue sea blending with stretching white sand. Featuring rugged yet somewhat challenging low rocky mountain ranges, and especially dreamy shades of blue in the sea, Vinh Hy Hom Beach is considered a “rough gem” hidden amidst groves of trees, soothing the heat of the driest land in Vietnam.

Hom Beach is also called Turtle Island because it is the breeding ground for many species of sea turtles. From around April to October is the breeding season for sea turtles, when hundreds of turtles come to lay their eggs. Nature has favored this place with fine sandy shores, ideal for digging holes and laying eggs. At the same time, Ninh Thuan Hom Beach is sheltered from the wind, featuring clean, clear blue waters, making it an ideal habitat for turtle hatchlings.
