Overview
Search for camping near Nha Trang and you get lists of ten or twelve names side by side as though they were the same kind of thing. They are not, and that is the most useful thing to know before you go. Half the names on those lists are businesses with staff, toilets and a booking; the other half are empty ground or wild beach, where what you are renting is the tent rather than the place.
This page separates them. The twelve below are the first kind — a business behind them, an address you can look up, and you book ahead. Six in Khánh Hoà, six around Đà Lạt. The rest of the page is the second kind, and for those what matters is not a phone number but what is not there.
Everything here had to be findable as somewhere you can actually book, with an address you can navigate to. A few familiar names did not clear that bar, and each is recorded with its reason in the source comments. One example shows the problem: a site several blogs place “at Hòn Bà” is in fact at Mũi Kê Gà in Bình Thuận — and its own description gives it away, since it talks about tents by the sea and sunrise over the water, while Hòn Bà is a mountain.
On contacting them: all twelve now carry a direct number and a button that opens their own pin on the map, under each name. The numbers come from each business's own Maps listing rather than from a directory — a distinction that matters here, since one entry on this list was briefly carrying the listing site's number instead of its own. And one trap worth knowing if you look these up yourself: some directory sites print their own number where the venue's should be. One number appeared identically on the directory pages of three different campsites — ring it and you have reached the directory, not the place you meant to book. A number that recurs across unrelated listings belongs to whoever posted them.
For the self-service ground, the packing list is much the same everywhere: fresh water, a light, rubbish bags and cash. None of them has a toilet, none has a lifeguard, and phone signal varies. Carrying your rubbish out is not politeness but a requirement: nobody cleans these beaches.
The self-service spots around Nha Trang that already have a page here, so read before deciding: Bãi Dài on the airport road, the longest and easiest to reach; Dốc Lết to the north, which charges at one stretch and has some services; Ba Hồ stream if you want fresh water rather than sea; Bình Lập for the small empty bays past Cam Ranh; and Điệp Sơn if you accept depending on a boat and the tide.
Watch out
Two names appear on nearly every camping list that should not be on one. Bình Ba: in June 2026 the Khánh Hoà culture, sport and tourism department ordered operators to stop organising, promoting and selling trips to the island — the reason is the Cam Ranh military perimeter, not the environment. Hòn Mun: swimming and diving around the island have been suspended since 27 June 2022 and had not reopened as of July 2026. A list that still files these two under camping is a list nobody has rechecked.
There is one place where the line between the two kinds is easiest to see, and it is on Google Maps itself: Maps labels both kinds “Campground” alike. Open a Đà Lạt camping list and a site with a reception desk, toilets and breakfast sits directly beside Đa Phú hill — a hill about 12 km out with no services at all, where you carry your own tent, stove, charcoal and food. Both appear with stars and hundreds of reviews, and nothing on the screen tells you how they differ.
Further south is Vĩnh Hy bay, the name that has risen fastest in the last two years: Bãi Thùng, Bãi Cóc, the sheep hill. All three are open ground, and Bãi Cóc is reachable only by boat. Since 1 July 2025 this has been part of Khánh Hoà rather than Ninh Thuận, so do not be surprised to see two province names in the same search result. This site has no page for Vĩnh Hy yet and has not verified anyone operating a site there, so this names the places rather than recommending a booking.
Đà Lạt is about 135 km from Nha Trang over a pass, so it is its own trip rather than an afternoon — but it is the only place within that radius with a real cold season, which makes camping there a different proposition entirely, and it also has the most campsites. The six Lâm Đồng entries below spread four ways: two beside Tuyền Lâm lake, a coffee farm at Đạ Sar, a pair of sites at Cầu Đất, a pine-forest place close to the centre, and one deep inside the Golden Valley. The overnight treks in Bidoup – Núi Bà national park are not listed: the most prominent seller gives a company address in Hanoi and uses the email of a Sapa review site.
One detail about addresses will confuse you on the way: both provinces renamed their communes and wards on 1 July 2025, and most travel pages still print the old names. Suối Cát became Suối Dầu, Diên Tân became Diên Thọ, Ninh Thượng became Hoà Trí; in Đà Lạt, wards 4 and 10 were both folded into Xuân Hương – Đà Lạt. The addresses below give the new name with the old one in brackets, because signage and the businesses' own paperwork still use a mix of the two.
On seasons: camping here follows the sea. March to September is dry with calm water; October to December brings rain and wind, which means a wet, cold beach and boats that often do not run. In the hottest months, May to August, the problem inverts: pitching on sand at midday is not something you do, so travel in the afternoon and have the tent up before dark. See the twelve-month climate table.
Some shops, with addresses
Kong Forest
Open map →Km19 Hòn Bà road, Suối Dầu commune (formerly Suối Cát), Khánh Hoà
Open 8:00 – 17:00The best-documented place on this page: every figure below comes from the operator's own site, Tây Thái Bình Dương Investment and Tourism JSC. It sits on the road up Hòn Bà, about 30 km from Nha Trang, and it is the place several blogs confused with a site in Bình Thuận. Overnight camping is a twenty-hour package: in at 15:00, out at 10:00 the next day, so you are buying an afternoon and a morning rather than just a night. Roughly 434,000–620,000₫ a night, with a 15% surcharge on public holidays and Tết. Besides the tents there are ziplines, ATVs and stream bathing.

Làng Nhỏ — Hồ Láng Nhớt
Open map →Đá Mài hamlet, Diên Thọ commune (formerly Diên Tân), Diên Khánh, Khánh Hoà — about 20 km out
The largest of the group: over 40 hectares around a lake below Hòn Bà, run by Natural Life and open since 2022. The accommodation is not one kind of tent but six — tent-roofed houses, bungalows, the Farm house, the Palm house, the Birds house, and a Yoga house sleeping up to twenty — which makes it a better fit for a group than for two. This address is the one that has confused every list: several blogs attach “Đá Mài hamlet, Diên Tân” to Nông Trại Vui, which is a different place elsewhere in Diên Khánh. One caution when looking up a number: the 1900 line widely quoted as its hotline is a booking agency's switchboard, not the resort's. The number above is the one Maps carries for this business.

Nông Trại Vui — Fun Farm
Open map →Thôn Thượng, Diên Lâm commune, Diên Khánh, Khánh Hoà — about 22 km north-west of central Nha Trang
A working farm that opens to visitors rather than a resort built for photographs: guests pick vegetables, feed the animals, collect eggs and fish with bamboo rods. Overnight camping is offered, which is why it belongs on this page. This is the one I wrongly dropped from the first version, believing the data contradicted itself — the contradiction was actually a blog attaching Làng Nhỏ's address to it. No prices here, because none came from the farm itself.

Bãi Dài Camping
Open map →Nguyễn Tất Thành road, Bãi Dài, Cam Lâm, Khánh Hoà — about 20 km south of Nha Trang
Open 7:00 – 22:00The only one of the group directly on the sand, on the same Bãi Dài strip that the rest of this page files under self-service — so both exist here: carry your own tent onto the beach for nothing, or pay for a pitched tent with a toilet and a barbecue. There are daytime slots as well as overnight, so it folds into a day at Bãi Dài. Some tents are air-conditioned, which is rare on a beach. No prices here: the packages move with the time slot and the season, so ask before booking.

Suối Mơ Dốc Tình Glamping & Retreat
Open map →Hamlet 3, Hoà Trí commune (formerly Ninh Thượng), Ninh Hoà, Khánh Hoà — about 45 km north of Nha Trang
A streamside camp in Ninh Hoà, the furthest from the city of the six in Khánh Hoà. Two numbers circulate as its hotline and only one is right. The one above is the number that appears with this property on the booking platforms; the other, 0905 176 017, belongs to a tour company reselling it — ring that and you are talking to a middleman rather than the camp. The number above is the one Maps carries for the business itself, so that is the one to ring. No price is quoted here, because the figure in circulation cannot be traced back to the camp.

Z Camp — hồ Kênh Hạ
Open map →Galina Lake View, Kênh Hạ lake, Nam Nha Trang ward, Khánh Hoà
The nearest, about 10 km out, and the only one you can reach by motorbike in an afternoon. It is a freshwater lake rather than the sea: flat water, a shallow edge, no seasickness and no boat timetable — which makes it the sensible choice for a first time camping or for a family with small children. Both tents and glamping. Details on its own page.

Twin Beans Farm
Open map →Hamlet 1, Đạ Sar commune, Lâm Đồng — about 20 km from Đà Lạt and 135 km from Nha Trang
A coffee farm at Đạ Sar, out towards Lạc Dương. Why it is listed when dozens of other names are not: its own booking page publishes everything you need — 1,100,000₫ per tent per night for two from Sunday to Friday and 1,300,000₫ at weekends, extra adults 300,000₫ and children aged 4–12 200,000₫; check in at 15:00, out at 12:00. That includes a private toilet, towels, a herbal foot soak, a farm tour and breakfast; it excludes dinner, drinks and transport. Their booking page takes reservations over Zalo only; the number above comes from Maps. Treat the rates as indicative.

Lavender Glamping and Resorts Dalat
Open map →1 Hoa Hoàng Anh street, Tuyền Lâm lake, Xuân Hương – Đà Lạt ward (formerly Ward 4), Lâm Đồng
A lakeside place on Tuyền Lâm, set in pine forest, and the most resort-like of the three in Lâm Đồng — restaurant, bar and its own parking, closer to a resort with tents than to a campsite. It is here because it is the only place around Tuyền Lâm that can be found on the major booking platforms, while the names usually listed beside it appear nowhere except in those same articles. Rates move by day of the week, so none are quoted here; check a platform or ask directly.

Reo Campsite Đà Lạt
Open map →Hoa Hồng road, by Tuyền Lâm lake and Tía stream, Xuân Hương – Đà Lạt ward (formerly Ward 4), Lâm Đồng
Beside the Tía stream on the upper arm of Tuyền Lâm lake, in pine forest — and the Lâm Đồng entry with the clearest published schedule: in at 15:00, out at 07:30 the next morning, a real night rather than a long afternoon. The overnight package is about 790,000₫ a head including the barbecue, drinks and a SUP board; weekends and holidays run on a separate rate card. They cap numbers, so book one to two weeks ahead, especially at weekends. Treat the rate as indicative.

Cloud9 & Cloud View Glamping
Open map →Group 1, Trường Thọ hamlet, Xuân Trường – Đà Lạt ward, Lâm Đồng — the Cầu Đất area, about 26 km from central Đà Lạt
On a map this appears as two pins with two names — Cloud9 and Cloud View — but it is one operation, and the booking platforms sell it as a single property. Knowing that saves you comparing two places that are not two places. It sits at Cầu Đất, 26 km south-east of central Đà Lạt and noticeably higher, so it is colder than town: the tents have air conditioning, private bathrooms and breakfast. Check in from 14:00, out by 10:00.

Kẻng Đà Lạt
Open map →Inside the Golden Valley resort area, Lát commune, Lang Biang – Đà Lạt ward, Lâm Đồng — about 8 km from the centre
The odd one out among the six in Lâm Đồng: not simply a campsite but a complex of café, food, a play area and pitches beside a stream, set deep in a valley inside the Golden Valley resort area. That means you can visit for the day without staying: there is no gate ticket, just order a drink, around 55,000₫. It is closer to town than most of the others, about eight kilometres. Ring before setting out, since the camping is only one part of the complex.

Forest Scent — Glamping & Camping
Open map →86 Khe Sanh, Xuân Hương – Đà Lạt ward (formerly Ward 10), Lâm Đồng — about 1.5 km from central Đà Lạt
The closest of the three to central Đà Lạt — about a kilometre and a half, so you can walk back into town — which makes it the one to pick if you want to sleep in a tent and still eat dinner in the city. It is laid out as three clusters in pine forest around a small lake you can paddle or fish on. It appears on both Agoda and Booking and runs its own social page, which makes it the easiest of the three Lâm Đồng entries to verify.

Addresses come from each shop's own Google Maps listing, and the Open map button opens that shop's pin rather than running a search. 18 shops on the site have no listing we could confirm, so they have no button: the address lookup returned a different business, and a button that points at the wrong place is worse than none. A Google score appears only when Maps carries both the score and the number of reviews — a bare average cannot be weighed, so this page leaves it out. Street-food stalls change hours and close without telling anyone; call ahead if you are travelling across town.

Frequently asked
Which campsites near Nha Trang can be booked?
Six in Khánh Hoà: Kong Forest on Hòn Bà, Làng Nhỏ at Láng Nhớt lake, Nông Trại Vui in Diên Lâm, Bãi Dài Camping on the sand, Suối Mơ Dốc Tình in Ninh Hoà, and Z Camp at Kênh Hạ lake. Six more around Đà Lạt if you go further.
What do you need for camping on open ground?
Fresh water, a light, rubbish bags and cash. None of these places has a toilet or a lifeguard, phone signal varies, and nobody clears rubbish, so you carry yours out.
Can you camp at Binh Ba or Hon Mun?
Both are kept off this page. In June 2026 the province ordered trips to Bình Ba to stop under the Cam Ranh military regulation; at Hòn Mun, swimming and diving around the island have been suspended since 27 June 2022 and had not reopened as of July 2026.
Which months are best for camping near Nha Trang?
March to September, when it is dry and the sea is calm. October to December brings rain and wind, so the coast is wet and cold and island boats often stop. From May to August, avoid pitching at midday — travel in the afternoon and be set up before dark.
