How to Get to Hon Nhon Island (within Cham Islands)
Xep Beach (Bai Xep) is on the largest island of the Cham Islands, and close to the main fishing village (Bai Lang) on this island. To reach this island from the mainland Da Nang or Hoi An, visitors need to take a speed boat or ferry from Cua Dai Port. Read our guide How to Get to Cham Island for more information.
After reaching the island, from the wharf in Bai Lang – the main village of Cham Island, the distance to Bai Xep Beach is around 2 kilometers. If staying overnight in the village, visitors can get there by walking. Just going southwards and along the coastal road (to Bai Huong Village), you will see Bai Xep Beach on the right hand side.
From Bai Huong Village, another area to stay overnight on the island, the distance to Bai Xep Beach is around 4 kilometers. If have a free plan and good level of fitness, walking there. The another way is riding the motorbike or taking a ride from local rider.
There is no speed boat going to Bai Xep Beach at the moment. If hire a private wooden boat from local people, it’s possible.
If book a day tour from the mainland, you may not have time enough to sightsee Bai Xep Beach. Instead, Bai Ong Beach or Bai Chong Beach will be your stop.
