Best Nha Trang Golf Courses for 2026/2027
Nha Trang has everything the coastal Vietnam golf trip is supposed to look like: blue water, warm weather from January through August, an international airport, good resort accommodation, and three championship courses spread across one of the most scenic stretches of the South-Central coast.
The city sits in what is now the expanded Khanh Hoa Province, following the merger of Ninh Thuan and Khanh Hoa in July 2025. The beaches, the courses, and the I-Resort hot springs haven’t moved.
Diamond Bay Golf Villas is the course that gets the most attention from serious players. At 7,244 yards with a slope rating of 146, it’s the most technically demanding of the three — divided into the Ruby and Diamond nine-hole loops with Paspalum turf throughout. That slope rating is not for the faint-hearted.
KN Golf Links in Cam Ranh, about 45 minutes south of Nha Trang city, takes a different approach. The 27-hole layout sits on the Bai Dai peninsula — long white sand, blue water on three sides, and the kind of coastal scenery that makes a mediocre round feel better than it was. It’s a links-influenced layout that uses the natural terrain of the peninsula rather than fighting it.
Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang operates on Hon Tre Island and is only accessible by cable car — which makes the commute to the first tee an experience in itself. The 18-hole, par-71 layout at 6,787 yards is the most accessible of the three for mixed-ability groups, and the island setting alongside 800 metres of white sand beach makes it a reliable stay-and-play base.
After the round, Nha Trang delivers. Po Nagar Cham Towers, the I-Resort hot springs, the offshore islands for snorkelling, and Binh Ba Island’s seafood are all within reach. It’s a city that earns a longer stay than most golfers plan for.
