A Private Car from Da Nang to Sa Ky Port (Quang Ngai) for the Ly Son Ferry
The road from Da Nang to Sa Ky Port (Binh Chau commune, Binh Son district, Quang Ngai) is about 130 to 135 km. The drive by private car takes roughly 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes on the Da Nang – Quang Ngai expressway.
Sa Ky Port is the gateway to Ly Son island, and ferry times and procedures can change with the operator. The private car can take an early-morning trip from Da Nang after the ferry time, the pickup point and the expected duration have been checked; this page makes no promise about arrival time until those conditions are confirmed.
The Da Nang – Quang Ngai Expressway: Fast and Predictable
- The route runs along the Da Nang – Quang Ngai expressway from the Tuy Loan interchange to the Doc Soi or Tri Binh interchange, then joins National Highway 24B straight to Sa Ky Port.
- The expressway usually cuts travel time compared with the old Highway 1A and avoids congestion points and heavy traffic, which helps passengers reach their ferry to the island on time.
- The price on the website lists the expressway BOT toll as included in the package.
