Da Nang's real charm is that it's too good a city for golf alone. My Khe Beach, the Marble Mountains, the Golden Bridge and cable car at Ba Na Hills, and the UNESCO-listed Hoi An Ancient Town all sit within a one-hour radius — perfect for golfers and non-golfers alike.
My Khe Beach
A long, gentle white-sand beach right by central Da Nang. Great for sunrise walks, a swim and beach cafes. Close to the hotels — easy to pop in before or after a round.
Marble Mountains (Ngũ Hành Sơn)
Five marble peaks hiding cave temples and viewpoints. An elevator makes the climb easier. A popular half-day outing.
Ba Na Hills & Golden Bridge
The Golden Bridge held up by two giant hands, one of the world's longest cable cars, and a French-style theme park. Pairs perfectly with a Ba Na Hills golf round.
Hoi An Ancient Town
A UNESCO World Heritage site — yellow old houses, the Japanese Bridge, and rivers lit with lanterns and floating wishes at night. With evening dining, it's the trip's highlight.
- Day 1 — Arrival & easing in
Morning arrival → hotel check-in → mi quang lunch → My Khe Beach stroll and rest → seafood dinner. Wrap up early for the next day's round.
- Day 2 — BRG Norman round
Morning 18 at BRG Norman (coastal links) → clubhouse lunch → afternoon Marble Mountains or hotel spa → evening in central Da Nang.
- Day 3 — Ba Na Hills golf + sights
Early-morning 18 at Ba Na Hills (mountain) → lunch → afternoon cable car to the Golden Bridge and theme park → transfer to Hoi An.
- Day 4 — Hoi An & departure
Morning stroll through Hoi An Ancient Town → cao lau lunch → last shopping and a cafe → to the airport (close to town). For one more golf day, add the Nicklaus or Hoiana.
While the group plays, companions can relax at the hotel spa or private beach, or fill the day with a half-day Hoi An Ancient Town tour (ao dai photos, lantern-making), the Marble Mountains, or a cooking class. A separate car makes it easy to move independently of the golfers.
- Golden Bridge / cable car tickets (book in peak season)
- Hoi An lanterns at night (peaks after sunset)
- Use the Marble Mountains elevator
- Pre-book a car/tour for companions
- Leave buffer time for the airport on departure day
Da Nang offers the best balance of 'half golf, half resort and sightseeing'. Finish your round early and spend the afternoon on sights and rest, and a short golf trip from Thailand becomes wonderfully complete. Enjoy your rounds!
