Backpacking trip to Kega Lighthouse resort

Hà Nội đang mùa mưa phùn gió bấc về Sài Gòn gặp ngay nắng vàng rực rỡ. Sẽ rất thú vị khi bạn chạy về Kega Lighthouse Resort, địa danh ven biển Bình Thuận, cách Phan Thiết vài chục cây về phía Nam. Nơi đây ấm áp quanh năm, thừa thãi nắng và gió với những bãi cát trải dài ven biển đẹp đến nao lòng.

Starting from Saigon, you have many options to be able to move to this land. If traveling by coach, you can go to Mien Dong bus station, there are coaches of many companies running to Phan Thiet, fares range from 160,000 VND to 260,000 VND, depending on the quality of the coach.

Another interesting option is going by train. Compared to coaches, the train fare does differ much, between VND 200,000 and VND 480,000. Depending on the type of seat that will have different fare price. Hard-seat ticket fares are the cheapest and the most expensive are soft beds with air-conditioned. To buy tickets, you can buy online at the website of Vietnam Railway Corporation or buy directly at the train station.

From Phan Thiet, you can take a bus or taxi to Kega Lighthouse Resort which is quite convenient. Room rates here are also quite attractive, with approximately 50 dollars you can have a very nice sea view room.

Along with the two options above, going to the resort by motorbike will also be a better option for visitors. With a distance of approximately 200km from Saigon to Phan Thiet, riding a motorbike is a great choice for those who want to explore the roads, especially the South Central Coast region with the coastal road known as the most beautiful in Vietnam.

To travel to Kega Lighthouse Resort by motorbike, you can follow Highway 1A or Highway 51, these two options have several differences. If you want to run fast in a straight line, take Highway 1A. However, this road is entangled with many bulky and slow-moving trucks, which will be quite dangerous for those who are not used to driving motorcycles. The two sides of the road are basically urbanized but you can still stop to visit the fruit granaries in Long Khanh or Xuan Loc to enjoy the specialties at this surprisingly cheap price.

Another option with a longer but rather interesting journey is to take Highway 51, the coastal road. Starting from Saigon, you cross the Cat Lai ferry to Nhon Trach in Dong Nai territory, continue moving through Long Thanh, cross the Silver Stone in Ba Ria land. From here, you drive straight to the east and then you will meet Highway 55. Follow this road you will have the opportunity to see the immense rubber forests in Xuyen Moc, enchanting coastal roads in Binh Chau, Ham Tan ...

For beautiful pictures, you can use a dedicated camera or a mobile phone. You share memories with your friends and laugh at all the amazing stories you accumulated. The picture will reflect on how much the trip taught you and even how much it shaped who you are today. No matter what kind of trip you take, you often go through a myriad of emotions before, during and after your adventure. Long distance is better if two people take turns driving, you will have a trip to Kega Lighthouse Resort full of fun, from which you can explore many other fascinating places around!
