Visitors to Nha Trang

According to the Nha Trang Bay Management Board, ticket prices range from VND 6,000 to VND 40,000 (approximately USD 0.25 to USD 1.60) per trip, depending on the island route. The fee applies to tourists travelling by boat within the bay and its islands, from Ke Ga Cape to Cu Hin Cape, and does not include accident insurance.

Hon Mun Reserve currently remains closed to tourism activities to protect its marine ecosystem.

Children under 6, people with severe disabilities, seniors over 60, revolution contributors and residents with permanent household registration in Khanh Hoa are exempt. Children aged 6 to under 16, students and members of poor households receive a 50 per cent discount.

Under the regulation, the management board will retain 80 per cent of total revenue for conservation, landscape restoration and operations, while the remaining 20 per cent will go to the state budget. The fees are expected to strengthen ecosystem protection and improve tourism services toward sustainable development.

Khanh Hoa boasts the longest coastline in Vietnam at more than 490 km. Nha Trang Bay, covering nearly 250 square km, is one of 16 national marine reserves, home to one of the world’s richest coral reef ecosystems and diverse marine life.
