Reaching Ky Ha Port from Hoi An by Private Car

A private car from Hoi An to Ky Ha Port: the Chu Lai cargo port and agreeing the drop-off

Ky Ha Port is about 80 km and 1.5 hours from Hoi An. Ky Ha is the name of the shipping channel that leads into Chu Lai International Port in Nui Thanh, which is run by Truong Hai International Logistics (THILOGI, part of THACO); it is a container and general cargo port. The port has several berths, so ask your host which gate and berth your appointment is at.

The port has no passenger terminal or tourist landing, so this transfer is for a business trip with an appointment at a company in the port area. If you need to reach an island or board a passenger ship, check the name of the wharf before you book a car.

Ky Ha and the ports it is confused with

Boats to Ly Son island leave from Sa Ky port in Binh Son, Quang Ngai (a fast boat takes about 30 to 40 minutes), not from Ky Ha: see the private car to Sa Ky port for Ly Son and the Hoi An to Sa Ky port private car route. If you work with a company inside the Chu Lai Open Economic Zone, see the Hoi An to Chu Lai Open Economic Zone private car route.

The meeting point and the port’s access rules

Send the name of the host, the address or the gate you need and the appointment time. Whether a car and its passengers may enter the wharf area is decided by the operator or the host; ask them first. Dispatch agrees the stopping point with that unit, and Sun Travel does not issue access permits for the port.

Counting your departure from the appointment time

An illustration, not a fixed schedule: an appointment at 14:00 and you want to arrive before 13:30, so the car leaves Hoi An at about 11:45, which leaves about 1 hour 45 minutes for the 1.5 hours of driving plus a buffer for traffic and gate procedures. Cars can enter the gates of hotels and resorts to pick up guests; for a stay inside the pedestrian zone of the old town, meet at a point outside the restricted zone.

Waiting and the return

The route rate is one way; the car waiting during your work and the return to Hoi An we will quote and confirm separately from the real schedule. For a larger group, send the number of people and the list of pickups; see 16-seat van rental for groups and families and choosing between 4-, 7- and 16-seat vehicles.

Not included in the rate

• Not included: The boat ticket and anything sold at the port, and a car waiting for the return.
