Top destinations to explore
1. Bai Mon Beach
Address: Dong Be village, Hoa Tam commune, Dong Hoa, Tuy Hoa, Phu Yen.
Bai Mon is one of the hottest Phu Yen tourist destinations nowadays. This beach is located between two long mountain edges, forming a mysterious “pool” about 500 meters long, protected from high winds.
Unlike other beaches, you will not find any tourism services here because Bai Mon is uninhabited and is still wild and clean. This is also a plus point that makes tourists from all over the world come here to feel the beautiful and natural central sea in the truest sense.
On the other hand, at Bai Mon, you will also see the earliest and most beautiful sunrise at sea among the “top” on the mainland. To admire this moment, you can camp overnight at Bai Mon, make a campfire, and enjoy the rare peaceful atmosphere.
2. Da Dia Rapids
Address: Phu Hanh village, An Ninh Dong commune, Tuy An, Phu Yen
This place is about 40 kilometers from Tuy Hoa city and impresses with the black rocks arranged in an orderly manner by nature on the clear blue coast; looking from afar, it looks very much like a giant plate.
The type of rock that makes up Ghenh Da Dia is basalt, which was formed over 200 million years ago. When the volcano on the Van Hoa plateau is active, the erupting lava flows meet with cold water, causing the lava blocks to crack and form extremely beautiful rocks. Today, when coming to Ghenh Da Dia, you will admire many stone columns of various shapes, from hexagons to circles to squares, stacked on top of each other to form a solid block.
Like an artwork created by the hands of nature, Ghenh Da Dia today has become a tourist attraction that many tourists visit and check-in.
3. Vung Ro Bay
Address: Hoa Xuan Nam commune, Dong Hoa, Phu Yen
This vast bay with breathtaking views and fresh seafood has captured the eyes and stomachs of many visitors.
The scenery of Vung Ro is gentle, the water is as blue as jade, and the anchorage is full of many boats. Along the coast, there are many fine and beautiful sandy beaches. The bay is also home to many kinds of shrimp, fish, and coral carpets on the seabed, which are also very beautiful and unique, creating an enchanting Vung Ro.
4. Mang Lang Church
Address: An Thach commune, Tuy An district, Phu Yen
Leaving Tuy Hoa city, go back to Tuy An and follow the small road to Mang Lang church – one of the most beautiful “spiritual” places in Phu Yen!
This whole building is built in the magnificent Gothic style, which is unmixed and extremely majestic. Dating from the 19th century and experiencing the wind and dew, the beauty of the church is made even more ancient and mysterious by the walls covered with moss and grey.
The main gate of the church is also the most famous background for this sightseeing spot. After that, you can go down to the cave below the hill and learn more about the history and important figures of the church.
5. Nghinh Phong Tower
Address: Nghinh Phong square in Tuy Hoa city, Phu Yen
This artwork has an extremely unique architecture and is formed from the beauty of Ganh Da Dia. The tower is made up of cylindrical stone blocks stacked on top of each other and is embellished with many sophisticated and unique patterns.
Besides the Twin Towers, visitors can visit and take pictures in the parking area, embedded kilometers, walking paths, and also on the square. Especially at night, at the Twin Towers, there is a vivid 3D mapping and laser light show.
Phu Yen people are extremely fond and proud of Nghinh Phong Tower and consider this artwork a symbol of their locality.
6. Mui Dien
Location: Phuoc Tan Hamlet, Hoa Tam Commune, Dong Hoa, Phu Yen

In the distance, a big lighthouse can be seen facing the water. At the base of the mountain is Bai Mon, a popular beach because of the peace and quiet it offers.
It is a popular destination since it is one of the earliest locations in Vietnam to welcome dawn and has a wild, unpretentious beauty.
