About 30 km. Taxi or Grab roughly 300,000–450,000 VND, 35–45 min; some shuttle vans run to hotels in the center.
Driving and onward travel
- Scooters: Rentals are easy and roads are calm; coastal highways have trucks. A valid motorbike licence is required and insurance often excludes unlicensed riders.
- Driving: on the right. Only 1968-Convention IDPs are valid (US ones aren't); unlicensed scooter riding is common but voids most insurance.
- Onward travel in Vietnam: Cheap flights (Vietjet, Vietnam Airlines) link Hanoi, Da Nang and Saigon; the coastal North–South railway and sleeper buses are slower, scenic alternatives.
