A July 2026 walking tour of My Khe Beach and the An Thuong tourist district reveals a surprisingly quiet atmosphere, with fewer Western tourists than earlier in the year. The creator notes that the low season has begun for Western tourism, though the airport remains busy. Weather is cloudy with brief rain, but the sea is warm and surfable. Construction on Do Ba Street makes walking unsafe due to missing pavements and heavy traffic; the area is expected to improve by 2027. New beach clubs like Columbbo and Holiday Beach offer more options, but nearby jackhammer noise may disturb stays at hotels like Moon Tang. For a quieter visit, the creator recommends staying at resorts further south (e.g., Pullman, Furama) or beachfront hotels in north Son Tra. The video also includes a personal aside about Starbucks prices as an informal cost-of-living benchmark.
