When should you visit Ganh Da Dia in Phu Yen?

Phu Yen welcomes your travels almost all year round because every season is beautiful. However, according to the Phu Yen travel experience, the best time to visit this place is March to August. At this time, the beauty of the trio of “blue sea – sunny sand – golden sunshine” is a masterpiece. Just play with the camera in hand. You can freely take shimmering, magical photos with different designs. In particular, this place also has stacks of jagged stones that randomly bring you a unique and exciting photography background.

A small note for you is that you should not miss the moment of sunrise and sunset at Ganh Da Dia Phu Yen. The scene is so deep with a view that captures the beauty of nature.

If your starting point is Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, you can choose to take a plane to Tuy Hoa airport (Phu Yen). You can also take the train to Tuy Hoa station or a bus to save money.

It would be best to drive along the National Highway 1A to the North about 30km to reach Chi Thanh town from Tuy Hoa city center. Then, it would be best if you turned right to the East about 12km to go to Da Dia Reef. 

In addition, you can also follow the coastal road of Tuy Hoa to Ganh Da Dia with a longer distance. It is about 35km. In particular, when following this road, you will have the opportunity to see some other famous tourist spots in Phu Yen, such as Bai Xep beach, Long Thuy beach, or Yen Cape, etc. Remember to consider before deciding.

The sea rushes to the shore to create white foam that splashes along the large rocks.

Ganh Da Dia, with a width of about 50m and a length of more than 200m, is one of the beautiful landscapes in the land of Phu Yen. If viewed from above, the first impression that “hits” your eyes are the area of ​​rapids encroaching on the sea with black prismatic blocks of rock stacked and tied together, one island connecting the other with the waves. The water was like a giant, regular piece of beeswax. There are standing pillars, crooked pillars, and overlapping floors like dishes, so it is called Ghenh Da Dia.

The general picture of the interlocking stone blocks shows the solid and durable exterior beauty of this place. In addition, this place also has magical, rough rocks that are layered on top of each other to form a large cliff, standing tall and stretching out to the sea.

The rocks are bumpy, so you have to be very careful when moving around the areas.

These rapids formed after a volcano spewed lava into the cold sea and froze, along with the phenomenon of stress transfer, so the lava blocks were fractured in many dimensions and “born” the incredible wonder today – Da Dia Reef, Phu Yen. Although the climate has changed continuously for hundreds of years, the waves here are still playing with white foam, hitting the cliffs like they are playing with each other.

In particular, the rocks here are ranked at different heights, so you can still find yourself a seat near the edge of the sea, where there are gentle waves, to watch this beautiful blue sea at a closer distance. 

Even though it’s late afternoon, the waves are still slapping the shore, along with the golden orange of the setting sun, illuminating the far corner of the sky.

If you are brave enough to go deeper into the rapids a little more, you will encounter a cave deep at the foot of the mountain with mysterious beauty. In the distance is the image of Lang beach with ample, clear water in the shadow of clouds and sky. Not stopping there, every time the sunset falls, looking down from above is a beautiful picture of gold-dyed stones like gold-plated plates.  

Just stop by Ganh Da Dia Phu Yen. You are free to take pictures with a beautiful background because of nature.

It would be great if friends and relatives chose Ganh Da Dia Phu Yen as a place to stop for picnics, organize short parties and fun activities here. In particular, although the stone blocks are stacked in a ladder style, there are still many relatively flat areas for you to sit and have fun together.

The feeling of sitting on the rocks, listening to the sound of waves, watching the immense sea in front of your eyes with friends and relatives must be outstanding and memorable experiences that you will never forget.

Ganh Da Dia Phu Yen not only stops at the majestic natural scenery that makes people scream, but it also brings a picture of the real-life of the people here. Most easily seen here is the image of street vendors wearing conical hats, wearing simple clothes, and the rustic voice of Phu Yen, which evokes a strange sense of peace for visitors. Although the main job is selling, the aunts and uncles are still not afraid to take their time to tell you about exciting stories here.
