4. What to eat when visiting My Khe Beach?

Going to My Khe Beach and just swimming is… missing half the experience. The coastal area and nearby roads are home to many eateries, seafood restaurants, local diners to more upscale venues — enough for you to "eat from morning till night" without getting bored.

4.1 Fresh seafood – A "must-try" dish in My Khe
My Khe is famous for its fresh seafood, quickly prepared and served in various styles: steamed with lemongrass, grilled with onion oil, salted, tamarind sauce… You can choose the most "addictive" dishes like: grilled squid, grilled shrimp, steamed crab, grilled oysters with cheese, grilled scallops, various types of snails. Served with fresh vegetables, dipped in green chili salt or fermented fish sauce — truly "going to the beach must have the taste of the sea."

4.3 Seaweed – A gift from the sea, refreshing and easy to eat
Seaweed in Da Nang is not the type that has a "strong smell" that is hard to eat, but is usually cleaned and prepared as a salad, soup, or served with seafood. Both unique and light on the stomach — perfect for a change of taste after hearty meals.

4.4 Noodle cakes, filtered cakes – Small but "knockout" the taste buds
Noodle cakes in the My Khe area often have a unique flavor: soft, fragrant rice flour, rich filling, and taste even better when hot. If you feel a bit hungry after a trip, stopping by for a few plates is "just right."

4.5 Quang noodles – A must-have specialty on the checklist
Quang noodles are easy to suit most tastes: chewy, soft noodles, rich broth, served with grilled rice paper and fresh vegetables. If you want a "substantial" meal before heading to the beach or after swimming, Quang noodles are an excellent choice.

5. Safe bathing areas at My Khe Beach

5.2 T20 – T18 bathing area

This area is characterized by strong waves and deeper water, so it is suitable for those who know how to swim, enjoy the "strong" sea feeling, and like to play beach sports. If going with young children or elderly people, it is advisable to consider, or just play near the shore and observe the warning flags.

5.3 1–2–3 bathing area

Well-planned, the 1–2–3 area has a gentle slope, wide sandy beach, and fewer waves, suitable for families, large groups, and young children. This is also a very convenient place to organize team building, beach volleyball, and light picnics.

My Khe Beach is not only a place to swim but also a place to slow down, to deeply breathe in the salty breeze, and to make summer more memorable than ever. If you have the chance to visit Da Nang, don’t just pass by My Khe – take a truly early morning, a long afternoon, and a beautiful memory to take home.
