Yang Bay – green destination in the forest
45km to the west from Nha Trang, Yang Bay seems to be outside of the hustle and bustle of urban life. Many visitors said that this is the land that heals wounds for the soul. Leaving behind the noise of the life, visitors come here to listen to the singing of birds on the hillside, immerse themselves in the space of the forest and feel the gentleness of the nature and local people.
Yang Bay Waterfall is the heart of Yang Bay Tourist Park, the main waterfall in the system of 3 waterfalls: Yang Bay, Yang Khang and Ho Cho. Yang Bay Waterfall is 80m high and 2,000m long. In the pouring water season, the waterfall is like a girl’s hair stream flowing endlessly. At the foot of the waterfall is a lake for visitors to enjoy soaking in the cool water, leisurely enjoying the scenery on both sides with shady trees. Yang Khang Waterfall is a smaller waterfall with smoother flows. Ho Cho Waterfall has its own unique feature with the simultaneous existence of two hot and cold water streams. In addition to cool waterfalls and mellow hot mineral pools, Yang Bay also has the service of mud bathing – a gift of nature that favors the land of Khanh Hoa. In the midst of the vast space of the mountains and forests, visitors are immersed in soft mud to help anxiety and fatigue gradually disappear.

Visitors to Yang Bay can also enjoy the flow of Raglai culture through unique art programs. Dancers in traditional costumes gracefully perform the dance of their homeland. Instruments made from stone and bamboo are performed by Raglai artists to create a chord bringing listeners into the music of the highlands.
In Yang Bay, there is a harmony of mountains, rivers and streams, and the climate is cool and fresh; so, visitors can come at any time of the year, but the best time is in spring.
Monkey Island and Orchid Island – green islands in the middle of Nha Phu Lagoon
Leaving the mountains and forests of Yang Bay, visitors come to the vast Nha Phu lagoon with waves. Distance from city center. About 18km from Nha Trang to the north, Monkey Island and Orchid Island stand out as a “green pearl” amidst the immense green picture of Nha Phu lagoon.
