Vietnam has beautiful beaches. The best beaches in Vietnam - where is the best place to relax? Very detailed about all the beaches of Nha Trang

Vietnam is a wonderful place with an incredible number of beaches both on the mainland and on the island part of the country. All beaches are washed by the warm Yuno-Chinese Sea.

Top 7 - beautiful places in Vietnam

1) Phu Quoc Beaches

Phu Quoc Island is located in the southern part of Vietnam, rich in beaches and picturesque seascapes. Phu Quoc beaches are clean white sand beaches, there are not many tourists here, so here you can retire and feel like the sole owner of all this splendor. Only a small part of the island has equipped beaches; tourists, hotels, cafes are concentrated on such beaches.

Long Beach

Another name for this beach is Duong Dong. Perhaps one of the largest beaches in Fukuoka, 5-7 km long. This beach is quite a lively place, it is equipped with sun loungers and is a favorite among tourists. The beach itself is clean and cozy - it is carefully monitored and cleaned regularly. It is here that the main hotels and cafes of the island are concentrated.

How to get there: This beach is impossible to miss due to the large number of hotels located close to the beach and the sea.

Bai Sao (Sao Beach / Bai Sao)

This place is like a lost paradise. A clean beach with fine white sand, the sea enchanting with its turquoise color, palm trees desperately reaching for the sea surface - give the beach its own unique charm. It should be noted that you can find no more than 2 hotels nearby, so if you want to live a couple of days in a secluded place, in a personal paradise, this place is perfect.

How to get there: Located in the northwest of Fukuoka. Many excursions include a visit to this secluded beach, so you can simply book a tour and you will be taken to Bai Sao (Sao Beach / Bai Sao). You can also get there on your own by renting a motorbike.

Bai Zay Beach (Bãi Dài)

Bai Dai Beach or Bai Dai Beach, once considered one of Phu Quoc's secluded beaches, has recently become a popular destination for tourists. Infrastructure is being actively built here - hotels, cafes and various entertainment venues. The peculiarity of this beach is soft white sand, clean and tidy beach and a wonderful landscape that fascinates with its genuine beauty.

How to get there: getting to this place is quite problematic due to its remoteness (about an hour by moped).

2) Nha Trang beaches

Nha Trang is primarily a beach holiday, there are many hotels, cafes, restaurants, shops near the sea. The beaches are clean and equipped with everything that a tourist needs. From November to mid-February, Nha Trang is not the most the best place for swimming, because due to strong winds the waves raise quite impressive.

The beach is lost for 7 km along the city, covering almost the entire tourist area of ​​the city. In general, the beach is clean and well-groomed, the sand is fine yellowish in color. In the daytime, when the sun especially bites, the beach is deserted, but in the evening, somewhere from 16.00-20.00 in the evening, the beach fills with people and becomes a very busy place in the city.

Along the beach there are small sports grounds with exercise equipment, where people are actively engaged in their health. People are talking nicely on the benches. Children laugh and rush headlong. Sometimes companies sit along the paved paths and have picnics.

At 9-10 pm the beach becomes deserted again, you can come at this time and sit in solitude with your soulmate and eat fruit, the beach at this time is illuminated by spotlights, so the beach looks unusual and at the same time safe.

How to get there: You can walk from any hotel in the tourist area.

Bai Dai

Another Nha Trang beach worthy of attention, the full name is Khu Du Lịch Bãi Dài. It is located on the site of the former military base of Nha Trang, so the place is not yet filled with cafes, hotels, but sellers, small seafood cafes are slowly coming here. Many people already know about this beach, so it is not as isolated as it might seem. The beach is not monitored, so in some areas of the beach you can stumble upon garbage. In general, the beach is cozy and comfortable, stretching for almost 15 km, 15 km of white sand.

How to get there: by taxi or motorbike 20 km (15 min.) south of Nha Trang.

Zoklet Beach, Nha Trang (Doc Let)

It is also called Doklet Beach, the beach stretches for 10 km along the sea. The place is quite developed and has everything a tourist needs - hotels, swimming pools, cafes, various shops, the beach is equipped, there are sun loungers, umbrellas. Zoklet is a picturesque place with fine white sand and palm trees along the coast. Due to the distance from the city, tourists prefer to stay on this beach for the whole day.

How to get there: 45 km north of Nha Trang, you can get there by taxi and motorbike.

3) Beaches of Mui Ne, Phan Thiet

Mui Ne and Phan Thiet often go together because of their small distance from each other. Mui Ne is a tourist resort, most of which are Russian tourists. A long strip of sandy beach stretches along the resort, conditionally divided into three beaches: East Beach Ham Tien, Mui Ne Central Beach, Puhai.

This place attracts lovers of extreme water sports, surfers and kiters. The beach itself is quite large - about 5 km. The beaches themselves are clean, the only thing is that construction is underway in some places on the beach, so be careful, iron pins are hidden under the sand in such places, stepping on which can injure your legs. They try to immediately remove them, but sometimes they miss.

We like this beach because it is not crowded here, you can completely move to a respectful distance from everyone who also came to enjoy paradise seascape Mui Ne. Often on the beach you can meet people jogging.

The only problem with the central beach is the way to get to the beach, because due to the abundance of hotels that stand wall to wall, it is difficult to get to the beach. We walked through the territory of the first line hotels or through small alleys in the center of the resort. Here, of course, it is better to rent hotels near the sea, as they have direct access to the sea.

How to get there: For resort area Mui Ne.

4) Danang Beaches

A large number of beaches in Da Nang are located within the city or in its environs. The beach has not been spoiled by tourists until recently, now the beaches of Da Nang are slowly gaining popularity.

Chinese Beach (China Beach or Bac My An)

China Beach is popular with tourists from all over the world, thanks to the soft fine sand and developed infrastructure, the beach has conquered many. The beach is regularly cleaned, so the beach area is very clean. From September to December, when the waves begin to rise, a lot of surfers come to the beach, it is here that the international surfing championship has been held since 1992.

If you are not afraid of being stung by a red jellyfish, whose burns are quite painful, then come here in June, the rest of the time the beach is ideal for swimming.

How to get there: is located 7 km south of the city center.

5) Lang Co Beach in Hue

The beach stretches for 10 km. Despite the proximity to the road, the place is quite quiet. The beach is suitable for families with children, as the depth of the sea on the coast is only a meter. In general, the beach is not crowded, very clean, palm trees grow along the beach, so if you get tired of the annoying sun, you can sit in their shade.

How to get there: the beach stretches along the motorway, separated by a small hill.

6) Beach in Halong Bay (Ha Long )

This place can be called one of the most stunning places in the world, Halong Bay itself was listed by UNESCO in 1994 as a natural monument of world heritage. Tourists are attracted primarily by the unusual landscape, bordering on something genuinely magical. It is this place that poses for advertising holidays in Vietnam on postcards, brochures and in various commercials. The beaches are covered with artificial sand, the water here is not transparent, but despite this, the place really looks like a heavenly place on Earth.

How to get there: from Hanoi by tourist bus (about 200.000 VND) for 3-4 hours, by regular bus from Hanoi from Long Bien, Gia Lam Station, My Dinh or Luong Yen bus stations to Halong city (about 50-60.000 VND) for 5-6 hours.

7) Cat Co and Cat Dua o Cat Ba

If you are attracted to crystal clear water, then this is the place for you, here the water is so clear that even at a depth of several meters you can see the bottom. Clean beaches with white soft sand cannot leave anyone indifferent. On weekends, there are many tourists (Vietnamese and Chinese) on the beaches, and on weekdays you can enjoy peace and quiet.

How to get there: Cat Ba Island can be reached by ferry from Binh Station or Dinh Vu Station in Haiphong City. You can also sail from Ha Long by boat.

Vietnam is history, culture, traditions and endless beaches. These beaches are designed to relax by the sea all year round. But in order for the vacation to be successful, you need to choose the “right” beach.

The beaches of Vietnam are very diverse. Some of them are intended for a relaxing holiday, on others there are entertainment complexes, and there are numerous beaches that offer tourists marine entertainment and active pastime. Most tourists want to get to the beaches with white sand, although resting on the coast with brown sand is no less pleasant. There are also pebble beaches here - you can relax in Vietnam in different ways.

Vietnamese white sand beaches

White sand beaches are not uncommon in Vietnam, although choosing the perfect beach is still not easy. Most of these places are located near the city of Hoi An, which is one of the tourist centers of Vietnam. There are beaches for both lovers of a relaxing holiday, and for more active tourists.

Cua Da beach

It is a beautiful and large beach, its width is about 300 meters. The sand on the beach is almost snow-white, and the descent into the sea is gentle and comfortable. Parents with children like to relax on this beach, although there are suitable conditions for other tourists. There are restaurants and bars on the shore, there are several hotels of various price categories.

Tourists are offered original entertainment - elephant riding, and in June it is on this beach that an amazing action takes place - the kite festival.

An Bang

This beach can be considered one of the best in Vietnam. It is also quite large, but due to the fact that it is located at some distance from the city, there are much fewer people here. This beach is suitable for a quiet relaxing holiday. It will also be an ideal choice for budget holiday, since the meals in the cafes on this beach are much cheaper than on more popular beaches. But for outdoor enthusiasts, An Bang Beach will be somewhat boring.

Beaches on the islands

The territory of Vietnam includes several islands. It can be big islands with a permanent population or modest corners of wildlife that are not even indicated on the map.

These islands have beautiful beaches that are very popular among tourists.

Among the main islands with beautiful beaches are:

• phu quoc,
• Catba.

Some of the beaches on these islands are quite crowded, despite the fact that you can only get here with the help of a rented vehicle. On other islands, you can safely count on a quiet and relaxing holiday under palm trees and away from other tourists.

Truong

This beach is located on the island of Phu Quoc. The beach is very large, its length is 7 km, and it is easy for a tourist to find a place that is most convenient for relaxing. Most of the beach sections are hotels and restaurants, shops and entertainment complexes. But in some areas, a free territory has been preserved, where there are practically no tourists, just like everything else, which ensures comfort during the holidays.

Bai Dai Beach

Initially, it was a favorite place for wild tourism. Now it is one of the best beaches in Phu Quoc. Recently, it has been gaining more and more popularity, new hotels and all kinds of entertainment centers are being built here.

Ngoc Vyng

It is located on the island of Gem. It has very beautiful fine white sand. The infrastructure is well developed comfortable rest will be provided here.

Cat Co and Cat Dua

These are two beaches of Cat Ba Island. A feature of the beaches is that they are located in the mountainous zone. The relief of the beaches is not always the same, but the sea is transparent and amazing anywhere undersea world can be viewed standing on the shore.

The best beaches for diving

Many beaches in Vietnam have excellent conditions for water activities. Here are popular:

• Surfing,
• Windsurfing,
• kayaking,
• Water skiing,
• Diving.

Diving is especially popular here, as you can do it almost at any time of the year. There are numerous schools on the beaches that teach beginner divers, you can easily rent all the necessary equipment and rent a boat or boat.

Among the usual beaches, where all this is available, there are several specialized ones, where diving is especially popular.

Most of these beaches also offer other activities, including water rides, jet ski rentals, walking and yacht fishing.

Chan Fu

This beach is very popular among tourists, as it offers a wide variety of entertainment. Despite the fact that the beach is not very wide - only 30 meters, its length of 7 km allows you to relax here on a grand scale. Almost on the entire coast, the descent into the water is gentle, but there are excellent places for diving. That is why there are two diving centers on the beach at once, where you can rent all the necessary equipment, as well as get a few lessons from a dive specialist.

Lang Co

All the beauty of the beach can only be appreciated by getting here. This is a huge area that amazes with its views. The beach is located on 13 km, around which there are sand dunes, mountains, jungle. The underwater world off the coast is also diverse, there are beautiful exotic fish, coral reefs and other marine life. The water along the entire beach is clear and clean, making diving more interesting and exciting. It is worth noting that this beach is not suitable for training, as well as for independent diving by beginners. It is better to take the help of a professional diver.

This beach is not crowded, so the rest here is always calm, you can count on silence and lack of attention from the local population or other tourists. Lang Co Beach is one of the 30 most beautiful beaches in the world.

chanyang

The beach is one of the most popular diving spots. There are always a lot of tourists and Thais who are also fond of this sport. For diving, excellent conditions are created here - the purest water, diving centers and the most beautiful underwater world. In these places you can see more than 350 species of corals and exotic fish. Chayang Beach is considered the center of diving in Vietnam. Also on this beach there are youth hotels, clubs, discos and everything else that will provide an active and fun holiday by the sea.

A clean, cozy, uncrowded beach and a warm, pleasant sea are such important things for every tourist and for every traveler. Let's see which of the Vietnamese beaches is worthy of attention?

Useful about Vietnam

About the beaches of Vietnam

We will compare the beaches of 4 Vietnamese resorts: Nha Trang, Phu Quoc, Hoi An and Mui Ne. We lived in Nha Trang and Hoi An for many months, in Fukuoka and Mui Ne we stayed only a few days. Therefore, we give the most complete information, of course, only for the first two resorts. Please, if you have something to say, make additions in the comments to this post.

Hoi An City

Small town with a lot of history. Very beautiful center, a sea of ​​small temples and museums. This city is almost unknown to our tourists and I was even scolded once for telling everyone about this wonderful city (quote: “Russian tourists will come and ruin everything, it’s better to sit in Mui Ne”). I don't know why Russian tourists have such a dislike for Russian tourists, but I continue to praise Hoi An and its magnificent beach.

Hoi An beach

The best time to visit, in our opinion: from May (maybe April) to August.

Pros of the Vietnamese beach in Hoi An

1. long coastline, gently sloping entrance, pleasant sand, moderately clear water (not perfectly clear, do not forget that this is the South China Sea, perfect transparency is simply impossible here);
2. clean and sparse.

Minuses

1. It is located far from the city center (where most hotels are concentrated), so you need to either rent a bike (10 minutes ride) or take a taxi or go on foot while exploring the city.

The town of Hoi An is very cute, we did not live in the city itself, but almost in rice fields :)) we rented a room from the Vietnamese:

Therefore, we went to the city itself once or twice a week, but still in 3 months we managed to see all the coolest places, which we will write about a little later.

City map

Click on the menu icon in the top left corner.

Nha Trang city

When we were in Nha Trang: August - October `13, December `13, January - March `14, July - December `14.

The best time to visit in our opinion is from February/March to September.

This city, however, like Mui Ne, is extremely popular among our compatriots. Russian signs, Russian menus - sometimes it seemed that you were not in Vietnam, but in Sochi. The city has both pluses and minuses, but it seemed to us that there are much more pluses. We fell in love with Nha Trang with all our heart for the beautiful city center, very cheap food and accommodation (do not forget that we do not live as tourists, but as locals), for the friendly staff wherever we go, for the large number of interesting places, and most importantly, for a good beach.

pros

1. the city beach is moderately clean, cozy, not very crowded during the day;
2. the entrance is gentle, there are no marine life, stones and large shells;
3. the sand is pleasant, not polluted with small stones, leaves or grass;
4. thanks to the long and wide coastline tourists are evenly distributed along the beach without interfering with each other;
5. In addition to the city beach, there are several more beaches near the city and on the islands (all information on them is in a separate post, the link is given above).

This is the city beach:

This is Zoklet beach (located a few km from the city):

Minuses

1. Perfect cleanliness is not about Nha Trang. To tune in to a European-level resort means to spoil your vacation. This is Vietnam, the local population has a peculiar attitude to cleanliness, so if the shore is not removed in time, you will be unhappy. See more photos, the benefit of them both in our blog and in general on the Internet is the sea. Negative reviews mainly come from those who lived on Zoklet beach and studied that territory well: the beach itself is very cool, clean and comfortable, but if you step aside a little, there is already a trash can. Conclusion: do not leave and you will be satisfied :)
2. In the evenings, the city beach becomes crowded: the Vietnamese have picnics, relax and swim.

We have seen many beaches in Southeast Asia, and if you are interested in our opinion, then we highly recommend lying on the beaches of Nha Trang, but strictly from March to September. Other months it's not so cool.

Very detailed about all the beaches of Nha Trang

Nha Trang Map

Phu Quoc Island

When we were on the island: November`13

The best time to visit, in our opinion: never)) well, or in 2-3 years, when everything is completed there.

Visiting Phu Quoc Island was perhaps our biggest mistake during our travels. In short, the island can be described as follows: an actively developing resort, which now consists mainly of construction sites and garbage cans. It is worth going there only when there is at least one large store, at least one good restaurant, at least one finished road and at least 10 times less garbage. At the end of 2013, this was not there. The prices are very high, the level of service is very low. However, you may be interested in that there are many beautiful places with untouched nature. Now only the coastal areas of the island are developed, so if you go inland, you will see forests and fields, there are almost no people there. There is state reserve Phu Quoc national park which is highly praised. We talked about the island in detail here:

It seemed to us that the only plus of Phu Quoc Island is Long Beach.

Pros of the Vietnamese beach on the island of Phu Quoc

1. it is long (albeit rather narrow), the coast is gentle;
2. the sand is very gentle, and I wanted to bury myself in it and forget myself;
3. crowded, but in moderation, no one interferes with anyone;
4. the coast is clean, it is clear that it is taken care of and often cleaned;
5. well-groomed houses, lawns, flowers and bushes pleasantly complement the rest, if you want to sunbathe - sunbathe, if you want to relax in the shade - hide under a palm tree on the lawn.

Minuses

1. concrete fences designed to prevent sand from washing away. They are apparently very necessary, but it is very easy to break a leg on them (they are not in the pictures below, see detailed);
2. there is no feeling of freedom and space at all, a narrow strip good sand- this is not something worth going all the way from Russia for.

When we expressed our negative opinion about the island on Facebook, we received in response 2 photos from the beach of the Canary 3 * hotel (the girl rested on Phu Quoc Island in 2012 and was very pleased with it):

The sewer and sticks sticking out of the water also delighted the girl:

Well, to each his own.

Mui Ne

When we were in: Jan`14

Best time to visit: November to April.

Tourist area in the south of Vietnam. It is called the paradise of kitesurfers. And it is also a very popular holiday destination for our compatriots, so, like in Nha Trang, there are a lot of Russian signs and every cafe has a menu in Russian. Prices are inflated only for housing, but not for food in cafes. Very tasty and satisfying food. Mui Ne is one street. Seriously. Just one long street.

We were in Mui Ne only a few days and were not satisfied with it.

After this article, someone agreed with our opinion about bad beaches, someone thought that our photos were unreal (even expressed the opinion that the chickens were painted on :)) and talked about their great vacation. We asked our acquaintances and friends, searched for information on the net and made a short digression with specific facts and figures. Only photos of beaches will be given here, only liked / disliked will be said about hotels. To make it easier to navigate, we now have a map where expensive hotels are marked in green, hotels from $50 in yellow and hotels from $12 in red.

Luxury hotels

Only one person (who at first scolded me, but later turned out to be a very good conversationalist and now also our subscriber) spoke about his experience of staying in an expensive hotel. Most other people vacationed in Mui Ne on a budget.

Romana Resort & Spa

Hotel: liked it

Cost: $3,760 for a few days. Private cottage with private pool and breakfast.

Beach: liked it

Visiting time: spring 2014

Quote: “The beach is constantly guarded and clearly monitor the safety of the guests. The shore is constantly cleaned during the day, especially during stormy waves. We had a fabulous honeymoon in beautiful hotel with great surroundings and great service. And by the way, about the fact that all the beaches are similar ( comments on our photos) - a deep lie! How many of them were bypassed, everywhere it was clean and beautiful, they didn’t come across unkempt ones. ”

Hotels from $50 per day.

1.Haiau Resort

Hotel: didn't like it

Cost: unknown, but now the prices are: $50 per day.

Beach: didn't like it

Visiting time: December 2013 - January 2014

Quote: “When choosing a hotel, no one could definitely advise anything, and nothing on the case was said on the forums. Of the advantages: the hotel was created for surfers, separate houses (rooms), prices in the area are much lower for food and things than in the center, New Year's concert. Disadvantages: the rooms are very old, they are not cleaned - only the towels are changed, far from the resort area, the coastline is very dirty (everything is in shells, jellyfish, they clean the fish right there, the smell is appropriate).”

3. Mui Ne Central Beach

Information only on the beach.

Time of visit: December 2013

Quote: “If you are going to Mui Ne with a child, and even in the kiter season, keep in mind that you will swim mainly in the pool. There is another option - to rent a hotel not in the center of the Russian beach, but not far from the Red Dunes in Mui Ne. There are several luxury hotels there. The waves there are noticeably smaller, and the sea is cleaner. You can already swim there with a child. ” Another quote: “It was almost impossible to swim on the central beach. To be honest, even in calm weather there was no desire to land and rest at all. There is a lot of garbage there, the sea is unclear and dirty.”

Quote and photo author.

Hotels from $ 12 per day

1Rang Dong Resort

Hotel: didn't like it

Cost: $12 and $16 per day.

Beach: didn't like it

Visited: January 2014

This is our hotel and our beach, we wrote about them in more detail in a post about Mui Ne. Here are just a couple of photos.

There were roosters and hens grazing on our beach.
Later we were assured that this could not be in Mui Ne. They are probably right, only we had chickens, ducks walked at other points. Very cute.

Cost: $16 per day.

Beach: liked it

Visited: March 2014

“Beyond the gate was the sea. It is difficult to call this place a beach, there were fishing round boats and nets were drying. Going a little further away you could swim. And in the evenings by the sea it was just great - palm trees, stars, the sound of the waves and - no one nearby. What a wonderful place!”

Source for quote and photo.

3 Sunrise Village

Hotel: liked it

Cost: $18 per day.

Beach: didn't like it

Time of visit: May 2013

“We will also consider the location of the future hotel. It seems like the place we had was not so hot. But let's say almost right behind our hotel the coast paved with concrete began. Some people might like it, some might not."

And a few more photos of Mui Ne.

But the question is how to choose the one that will appeal to you from a huge number of beaches. The coastline of Vietnam stretches for 3,400 kilometers along the sea. Tourists are attracted by kilometer-long sandy beaches, warm sea, quiet backwaters and unusual islands.

The climate of Vietnamese beaches

Before choosing a route for yourself, you should find out what season it is better to come to a particular resort. Otherwise, in the end, when you arrive, you will be very upset by what you see. During the rainy season, the sea is dirty here, the waves are big, and it rains heavily every day.

Some of the best beaches are located in the south of Vietnam. good season starts in October and ends in February. At this time there is no rain at all, every day is sunny and almost windless. But the rainy season from June to October is considered a natural disaster with rains and typhoons.

There are also very beautiful beaches in the north of the country. Here they are best visited from May to August.

Almost any beach of interest can be reached from Ho Chi Minh City. And the most large beaches located a couple of hours away by car or public transport. Therefore, if you decide to fly to Vietnam, then immediately take tickets to Ho Chi Minh City.

And now let's get acquainted with the best Vietnamese beaches.

Central city beach in Nha Trang

The beach stretches along the coast for 7 kilometers. But even despite its huge size, during the season it is always crowded with vacationing tourists. It is worth noting that the warm period here does not coincide with the summer months, so you should be careful when you are planning to fly to Nha Trang. The seasons are divided into dry and rainy. You only need to choose the dry season, since at this time there is no rain, it is warm and the water is not so muddy. The central beach is located in the heart of Nha Trang and is rightfully considered the best. You can get here from absolutely anywhere in the city by public transport or by car. Since this is the main city beach, entry here is free for everyone. But, as elsewhere, you will have to pay extra for renting sunbeds and umbrellas. Almost all of its territory belongs to the city authorities. But there are also small fenced-off beaches, which are considered the property of hotels.

The infrastructure of the beach is very well developed. Near the entrance there are changing rooms, showers, a mandatory medical center, and lifeguards are working. In addition, the beach is famous for its numerous entertainments. These are water skiing, snorkeling, jet skis, surfing, areas for active sports, boat trips, fishing and much more. If you came here just to sunbathe, then there are a lot of massage therapists on the beach who will make a delightful massage for a small fee.

Apart from entertainment attractions cafes and restaurants are located along the entire length of the beach. There we can eat delicious food and drink refreshing drinks. If you are too lazy to go somewhere, then you can stay in a sun lounger, and street vendors will bring whatever you want. However, take food from them with caution, as you can get poisoned. Be that as it may, if you want to try Vietnamese cuisine, then be sure to get exotic fruits, fish, delicious banana buns and other snacks that will definitely not leave anyone indifferent.

The city beach, like the rest, is strewn with sand. The sand here is white, fine and consists of small particles of the shells of marine inhabitants, which are considered to be a kind of filter for sea ​​water. Cleaned here once a day. The descent to the sea is gentle, and the bottom is flat sandy. You will not meet strong waves on the beach, as it is located in the very center of Nha Trang Bay. So the rest on the central beach will especially appeal to tourists with children.

It's easy to get to. The main landmark is Tran Phu street. Any available transport already departs from here. It is best to get there by your own car, which can be left in the parking lot near the beach.

Mui Ne central beach

Exactly this favorite place Mui Ne tourists. In another way, the beach is called Rang. For almost seven kilometers of the coastal zone there are many hotels, hotels, restaurants, bars, schools of maritime modes of transport and so on. The beach is famous for its large number of surfers and kiters. If you want to stay in a cheap hotel, then you should cross the road. The central beach is the place where it is always noisy, where you can find inexpensive accommodation. For lovers of a relaxing quiet holiday, Mui Ne beach is not suitable.

Myself main beach represented by a yellow and white sandy stripe. The bottom is flat, the descent is not very steep. True, the water here is quite muddy, in fact, as on other beaches of the resort. There are sun loungers and a few activities by the water. Although if you look at the entire length of the beach, you get the feeling that there is no entertainment here at all, since they are located at a great distance from each other.

The entire coastal zone is closely built up with hotels. That is why, when you settle in a hotel, it is very difficult to find a passage to the beach. Great discomfort is also sometimes presented by numerous caterers. But if it doesn’t bother you much, and there is a desire, then you can learn this sport in a special school located here.

Long Beach

The beach is located in the west of Phu Quoc Island. It is so long that it stretches from the airport itself to the southernmost point of the island. The sand on the shore is of a beautiful yellowish hue, quite fine, so the foot completely falls inward. It is much easier to walk on wet sand. The water is cloudy, a beautiful turquoise color. The bottom is straight, when going to the depth, the so-called steps are felt, as well as clean. Sometimes there may be groups of stones, but this is not critical. Only the northern part of the coast is occupied by hotels, but today the remaining beach is actively built up with residential complexes and hotels. But, despite the huge area, Long Beach is still little developed and there are not so many tourists yet. The entire infrastructure is concentrated mainly around hotels. A few years ago, the beach was only popular with Americans and some Europeans. Now, the Russians also fell in love with him. In the northern part it ends with a stone lagoon. In the same place, a river flows into the sea, behind which there is another beach. Oddly enough, the proximity to the airport does not interfere with rest at all. The noise is almost inaudible, although sometimes planes fly close over the water. All infrastructure such as bars and restaurants is also located in the most populated part in the north. As you move south, it becomes less and less common and finally disappears completely. Here on the shore you can buy numerous excursions, diving tours, fishing and much more. sea ​​views sports on the beach are not developed.

Long Beach is quite beautiful, in the evenings you can watch unimaginable sunsets here. So photographers on the coast will really like it. For several years now, the Vietnamese authorities have been planning to create a huge recreation park on the territory of Long Beach. For now, it's quiet and peaceful here. Party-goers obviously won't like it.

Bai Wong Beach

The beach is located on west bank Phu Quoc, near the city of Duong Dong. Today this place is developing rapidly, becoming the largest and very famous place among tourists. Due to its location, you can spend your leisure time on the beach even during the rainy season, without fear of natural disasters. To get to Bai Wong you will have to spend only nine dollars. A water connection has recently been established between the main part of Vietnam and the island, which has economically affected the development of a completely isolated beach. Despite the proximity to the city of Duong Dong, you will not be able to get to the island directly, you will have to take a detour. If you drive from the north side, you will come across the small fishing village of Ham Nin.

Bai Wong is an amazing beach, which is often called pearl. There is always pleasant warm water, and there are several cozy cafes on the shore. If you decide to stay in this part of Phu Quoc, don't forget to stock up on goggles and sunscreen. It is also not advised to walk barefoot on the sand, as it can be very hot and you can get burned. The best family vacation on Bai Wong Beach will be under an umbrella in a sunbed.

Bai Sao beach

This beach is considered the most beautiful in all of Phu Quoc and one of the best in Vietnam. Numerous reviews of tourists have become evidence of this. The beach is famous for its white sand and clear water. And the sand here is really unusual. It is as white as shown in the pictures. Toward the south, the sandy strip becomes yellower and much larger. That is why there are not so many tourists in this part. The beach is also famous for its clear water, shimmering with different shades of turquoise. The farther from the coast, the brighter and richer the color of the sea wave becomes. The sea here is always calm, warm, the bottom is sandy and completely shallow. Beautiful pictures on Bai Sao are obtained in the morning at low tide.

The most important entertainment on the beach will be a walk along the beach itself. He is extraordinarily handsome. You can wander for hours looking at crabs, collecting shells and admiring the sea. If you want to sunbathe, then get a sunbed near the Paradiso restaurant. When you buy a drink at the bar, you get a sun lounger for free. There is also a shower cabin with fresh water. In addition to the beach, many hotels offer jet ski, motorbike and kayak rentals. You can even rent a boat and go fishing.

Bai Sao has a lot of restaurants and cafes. Moreover, in addition to classical Vietnamese cuisine, even Russian dishes are served here. In addition to the main catering places, merchants constantly run along the beach and offer drinks.

Getting here is not so difficult, only the road is very bad. For a long time, the island authorities promise to build new road, but this is unlikely to happen until the entire Bai Sao finally becomes a resort area.

China Beach

Probably every tourist has heard about this beach. Moreover, he received his popularity after the release of the famous American series. China Beach stretches for many kilometers. Many locals say that during the war with the United States, Vietnamese troops picnicked here. But some people think that this historical fact finds himself in a completely different place.

The beach got its name from the hotel of the same name, located on the coast. Most likely, this was done in order to attract even more vacationers and tourists. And the title really helped. Hundreds of thousands of tourists visit the Chinese beach every year. In addition to the standard beach holiday, surfing is developed here. In 1992, the world's first competition in this non-standard sport was organized on the beach. The beach warm season begins in late spring and lasts until mid-August. Surfing is best from September to December. Therefore, depending on your preferences, choose the time when you go to Da Nang.

Kega beach

This place is called a hermitage. And all because there is absolutely no infrastructure here. But the beach is famous for its local historical landmark - the lighthouse of the same name. It was located around the stones and served faithfully for many years, warning ships of danger.

Today, the Lighthouse has become a local landmark, which you can go to on your own, and at high tide, sail on a boat. Fishermen often use it during night fishing. In general, the beach makes a good impression, it is especially beautiful during dawn, when the sun's rays illuminate everything around.

Paragon beach

This is a small beach, 200 meters long, located in the south of Nha Trang. Despite the very tiny size, this place can be called the Vietnamese Rublyovka. And all because various expensive villas, mansions and five-star hotels are concentrated on the beach. From all this, we can conclude that not all tourists can afford to relax here, although entry to the beach is free, and you will have to pay about $ 3 for a sunbed.

Getting to Paragon is not difficult at all. You can rent a motorcycle or take a taxi. The reference point is the cable car to Winpearl Island. The beach is of artificial origin, and was created specifically in quiet place, with calm water. This place is just a paradise for the whole family. Shafts were erected for additional protection from waves, and the quality of the sand here is much better than on many other beaches in Vietnam.

Locals say that once upon a time a fairy lived here, who once fell in love with a fisherman and decided to give him a gift in the form of three peaches, which she stole from the heavenly ruler. The man became aware of this and turned the fruit into three stones in the middle of the sea.

Therefore, the prices here are still pleasantly pleasing. The Russians are treated very well. Once the USSR helped Vietnam in exchange for a promise to follow the bright path of socialism.
