5. Cam Ranh Bay
Cam Ranh Bay has had its 15 minutes in Vietnam's maritime history. Considered to be one of the finest deep-water harbours in the world, the bay has been used both in peace and war time by the French, Americans and the Russians. Yet when all the boys and their toys packed up and left, the bay retreated back to a simpler existance and today most of the boat traffic is limited to small fishing vessels, nary an aircraft carrier in sight.
The bay was once ringed with white sand beaches, but locals -- obviously not of the sunbaking variety -- long ago dug fish farms into much of it. A pity for all you sun-hedonists, but the locals had to make a living long before the tourists came along, so there you have it.
But the news isn't all bad.
While plans have long been in the works to build resorts in the area, so far, they've yet to break ground on a single development and at first, it seemed there was little reason to stop in Cam Ranh. Sure you can take a look around the bay and enjoy some seafood along the way, but we spent a day exploring the bay and made a startling find.
Not all the beaches have been given over to fish farms. Far from it in fact.
There are quite a few beaches, mostly on a peninsula jutting into the bay, that are completely unspoiled and absolutely jaw-droppingly gorgeous. The natural beauty here is reminiscent of what Ko Phi Phi in Thailand must have looked like before it's 'fall from grace.' The water is clear and clean, becoming a shimmering turquoise in the bright sun, and the sand is fine and almost white.
What's more, but for the fisherman and the locals who make their way here for a dip in the late afternoon, no one uses the beach.
