Da Nang
One birthday, one beach, one very good burger
Food & Drink
- Maia Beach Bar – an upscale beach bar and restaurant, extremely enjoyable
- Roadhouse American Diner – a solid burger, if you need a taste of home
Sights
- A beachfront stretching for miles, lined with beach clubs, restaurants, and towering hotels
Experiences
- Cooling off on the beach between longer travel days
Getting Around
- A good stopover between Hoi An and points further south — most visitors pass through rather than settle in
Travel Tips
- One day is genuinely enough if you're just passing through — treat it as a breather between bigger stops
Overall Review
I spent just one day in Da Nang between travel days (on my birthday, no less) but felt that was plenty. Situated on the coast, it boasts a beautiful beachfront stretching for miles — a great place to cool off during the summer heat, with beach clubs, restaurants, and towering hotels lining the coast.
