Lying just a few kilometres inland, Hoi An packs in lots
of affordable accommodation, budget shopping, authentic eating
experiences, and interesting sights which are best explored
on foot. Close by is the fascinating ruins of My Son, as well
as Cua Dai Beach and China Beach the latter which are
popular for beach activities like windsurfing, snorkelling,
swimming and sunbathing. You can also take boat trips to Huong
Beach on Cham Island for the perfect daytrip. Hoi An is well-known
for its relaxed, holiday atmosphere year-round, making it
a popular destination for backpackers and travellers seeking
the perfect getaway.
The city of Hoi An is one of the quietest in Vietnam. Cars
are not allowed in the main streets and, unlike in the rest
of the country, motorcycles do not blow their horns all the
time. Hoi An is also famous for its lanterns, tailor shops
and traditional Vietnamese handicrafts.
