Vietnam Golf Coast teeing off

Vietnam Golf Coast clubs are gearing up for one of their strongest seasons as Da Nang sees record tourism growth.

The city had 7.74 million overnight visitors during the first five months of 2026, a 20.9% increase year on year. International arrivals climbed 23.6% to 4.18 million, while domestic visitors rose 17.9% to 3.55 million. 

The recent rollout of Vietnam’s digital arrival card in Da Nang is expected to build further on that momentum by making travel to Central Vietnam easier for overseas visitors.

The timing is ideal for golfing clients. The destination combines championship golf with beaches, luxury resorts, UNESCO World Heritage sites and a strong culinary scene. Within a little more than an hour’s drive, visitors can play courses designed by Colin Montgomerie, Luke Donald, Greg Norman, Jack Nicklaus and Robert Trent Jones Jr.

At Ba Na Hills Golf Club, Night Golf continues to gain popularity, giving golfers the chance to experience the Luke Donald-designed championship course under floodlights every Wednesday and Friday – available over both nine and 18 holes.

The course has also returned to peak condition following its annual coring and summer maintenance programme.

Montgomerie Links Golf Club will host its 16th Club Championships on 22 August 2026, bringing together members and guests for one of the highlights of the club’s annual calendar. Golfers visiting during the season can also take advantage of Twilight Golf from VND750,000 (approximately $50).
