Welcoming a new day at sea in Da Nang

Thu Giang |

Da Nang - waking up early with local people, rowing SUP, going swimming at dawn is an experience you should try when coming to Da Nang City.

Not only the brilliant bridges at night, the dragon boat dock on the Han River, the clear morning sunlight, the bustling fish market along the coast or each group of tourists rowing SUP at dawn are unique images that only this place possesses.

The way Da Nang people start a new day is very interesting and unique. It is the blend of the daily life of the people and the rare natural beauty that creates a vivid picture of Da Nang every morning.

Not only stopping at the brilliant sunrise, the whole sea here also opens up countless experiential activities, from simple things like walking, sightseeing to sports services at sea. That is the reason why many people choose Da Nang beach not only to relax but also to start a new, energetic day, completely different from the urban lifestyle often seen in big cities.

My office is only about 3-4km from the sea. If I used to be in Hanoi, when I was out of work, I often went home, walked around the park, and took a coffee break with friends, but when I was in Da Nang, I often ran out to sea alone, always stockpiling a pair of sandals and swimsuits in the trunk of my motorbike.

Da Nang beach, like most beaches in Vietnam, is oriented to the East, with a beautiful view when waking up early, watching the sunrise is also a pleasure that many foreign tourists experience when coming here.

Not only possessing rare natural beauty, Da Nang beach also has countless entertainment activities such as coral diving, paragliding, canoeing or relaxing on the sand with camping activities, BBQ parties, team building...

Mr. Nguyen Van Quang - SUP rental business owner ( running a business at Man Thai Beach, Da Nang) said that many tourists, especially young people, when coming to Da Nang City often register for SUP rowing experience services, welcome the sunrise, and watch the fish market in the early morning.

SUP rental prices will range from 75,000 VND/person, 150,000 VND/SUP for 2 people. Before rowing, visitors will have a technical tour guide to guide safety.

After swimming in the sea, many tourists often experience the popular seafood dish of squid-shaped instant noodles in the Man Thai sea area. The crispy squid is caught by people in the early morning, eaten with instant noodles, spicy and spicy chili, coriander stems... very stimulating to the taste buds.
