The Núi Chúa coastal area is a rare place on the mainland where protected sea turtles come to lay eggs every year.
In recent years, the provincial authorities of Ninh Thuận have strengthened measures to conserve endangered and rare species of marine fauna and flora, and sustainably restore and develop the ecosystem of the Núi Chúa National Park Marine Protected Area.

The provincial People’s Committee (administration) has spent more than VNĐ3.3 billion (nearly US$145,000) on a management plan of the Núi Chúa National Park Marine Protected Area in the 2021-25 period, which focuses on activities to preserve the value of natural resources and cultural and historical heritage, and rationally exploit and promote the value of the marine protected area.
One of the special features of Núi Chúa National Park is that this area has a dry and hot climate similar to many places in Africa (the highest temperature is approximately 42 degrees Celsius). Therefore, this place is also called “Phan Rang Dry Forest”.

The harsh climate and diverse topography have created a standard for the most typical and unique dry forest ecosystem of Việt Nam and Southeast Asia.
Núi Chúa National Park in Ninh Thuận was recognised by UNESCO as a global biosphere reserve at the 33rd session of its International Coordinating Council of the Man and the Biosphere Programme (MAB-ICC) held in Nigeria in September 7, 2021.
