Bai Dai (Cam Ranh)
Bai Dai is the long, mostly undeveloped sand beach between Cam Ranh airport and Nha Trang, in Cam Hai Dong commune, Cam Lam district — chosen over Nha Trang's sheltered city beach because it's the open-ocean stretch surfers in the area actually describe riding. Same short NE-monsoon window as the rest of central Vietnam. One Nha Trang-based school (see c-nha-trang-local-surf) now runs guided lessons here. Coordinate from an OSM beach-polygon centroid; independently corroborated (location, not precise lat/lng) by the Vietnamese Wikipedia article on 'Bãi Dài (Cam Lâm)'.

Open, gentle sand beach reached via guided transport from Nha Trang (see c-nha-trang-local-surf) rather than an on-site school. Outside the Oct–Mar window it is typically flat, like the rest of the Vietnamese coast covered in this guide.

- long exposed beach with limited services away from resort frontages
