The Xuan Thieu beach is 3km south of Nam O beach - a place-name linked with a historical event happening in March 1965 when the brigade No.9 of the US marine forces entered the city to start the strategy of "local war" in Vietnam.
Since 1975, the beach is only used for the US soldiers because this was the US military zone with an airport for field combat and storage of military supplies and defence system of Danang city from the North. The US troops called Xuan Thieu 'Red Beach”. This may be owing to visual feeling when they saw at dawn and sunset and the red was reflected from the sea.
Xuan Thieu beach is clean, beautiful and unchanged with white and silky sand and green water.
Since 1992, Xuan Thieu tourism resort has been built with a rather streamlined and sufficient system of services, including hotels, restaurants and some kinds of entertainment for bathing, meeting all tourists' demand.
At present, a 15-km long tourist road route from Thuan Phuoc to the foot of Hai Van Pass through Xuan Thieu beach has been building and will be completed in late 2003. This will be the chance for exploiting all potentials of the beach. |
