Update: 11/11/2009
Ninh Chu Beach, with its 10km length, is situated in Khánh Hai Commune, Ninh Hai District, 6km from Phan Rang - Cham City and is considered one of the most beautiful beaches of Viet Nam. At this place, besides swimming and enjoying the fresh seafood, visitors can also visit many places of interest. By cruising in class-bottom boats, visitors will enjoy coral reefs, Thung Beach, Coc Beach, Da Vach beach and contemplate the wonders of nature on the steep seaside cliffs.

In Ninh Chu, visitors also have the opportunity to visit the Phuoc Dinh mobile sand dunes. Twice a year, these dunes at times move into the mainland, at others move out into the sea and are therefore called "mobile sand dunes". Under the hills are small streams curving to lead water into the ocean, and some blue shining lakes.

Night eating is a pleasure for visitors in Ninh Chu. You can order the delicacies of this region such as clam porridge, or a squid pancake at midnight and still receive a welcoming smile from the vendor. Ninh Chu, Phan Rang, attracts visitors by its hospitality and friendliness of a tourist site that stays up late.

Right in Phan Rang City, a Cham Temple is situated on the top of Trau hill in Do Vinh District, about 9km to the Northwest of the town named Poklong Garai Temple. It was built at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th centuries. Upon coming here during the Kate festival, the biggest festival of the Cham people sometimes around October, visitors will be able to observe rituals for offering costumes, sacrifices and bathing ceremonies for the Poklong Garai statue. At the foot of the Poklong Garai Cham temple, a Cham Museum has been erected to display the artifacts of Cham culture. Along the road from Phan Rang to the sea, a series of big and small hotels have sprung up. A bit further away, visitors can visit Vinh Hy bay about 40km to the northeast of Phan Rang. The bay is in the middle of the Vinh Hy village (Vinh Hai Commune, Ninh Hai District) and is a magnificent range with towering mountain tops surrounding a white beach, with mysterious caves, and white bubble waterfalls that carry an air of pristine landscape created by nature.

Ninh Thuan also attracts visitors by its boundless Nam Cuong sand dunes, the mystery of the Nai Chua dried up forest and the distinctive features of Champa culture. It is an important connection node constituting the tourist triangle of Da Lat - Nha Trang - Ninh Chu.
