About Doc Let Beach
Doc Let Beach is a long white-sand beach in Ninh Hai Ward, Ninh Hoa Town, about 50 km north of Nha Trang in Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam. It is known for its fine white sand, shallow calm turquoise water and gentle slope extending far from shore. Stretching several kilometers along the Hon Khoi Peninsula, the beach offers a quieter alternative to central Nha Trang, with nearby salt fields, fishing villages and resort-lined shoreline.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a wide, flat stretch of fine white sand and very shallow, clear water that remains calm for a long distance from shore.
