The 40ha marina sits on a coast alongside Pham Van Dong and Nguyen Co Thach Streets in Vinh Hoa Ward, Nha Trang City.
The facility features three main zones, with one offering marina services, one for infrastructure facilities, and the remainder for quays, pontoon bridges, a park, and others.
It was designed to house up to 220 yachts.

Nguyen Thi Le Thanh, director of the provincial Department of Tourism, said the marina will make Nha Trang a new destination for luxury yachts and vessels.
The newly-launched marina will also host many tourism and sports events, especially international yacht races, Thanh added.
