Vung Tau beach  belongs to Southern Vietnam and is most loved by Vietnamese southern people thanks to its marvelous length as well as magnificent sea-view.

Why is Vung Tau Beach Special?

About 125km Southeast of Ho Chi Minh City, there appears Vung Tau City, which is located in Vung Tau peninsula, the curved point of ‘S’ letter (map of Vietnam). This is the border of  the South and the West of Vietland, where we can see the sun on the East Sea, both rising and setting.

2. Its Attractions

To most tourists, Vung Tau is most interesting and loved for its extensive beaches. Tourists always prefer sightseeing at Front Beach (Bai Truoc) to go swimming in Back Beach (Bai Sau).

• The first beach is Bai Truoc  (translated as “front beach” in Vietnamese), in the West of the city, where the sun goes down. Bai Truoc is considered the façade of Vung Tau city. It is also called by other names such as Tam Duong beach or Hang Dua bay. Besides the best location, the beach is also preferred for having many restaurants and elegant hotels. Sparking, colorful and bright light boulevard make Bai Truoc more beautiful.
• Opposite to Bai Truoc is Bai Sau , Back beach (or Thuy Van beach). Back Beach is well-known for its over 10 km of fine sand seaside. The beach is always excited and busy with almost tourists both from the city itself and the world. At weekends or on holidays, there are thousands of people coming here for swimming and entertainment. In Bai Sau, there is a popular kind of entertainment: Paradis, the upgraded swimming and relaxing area, and a system of modern hotels, welcoming all tourists. Other beautiful beaches are Bai Dua and Bai Dau.

• Bai Dau , Mudberry Beach, is at the foot of Nui Lon, in the North of the city. There used to be a lot of mudberry and ratten so it is also named Ratten beach. Nevertheless, today, there is no longer any mudberry and ratten. So now, instead, when mentioning about Bai Dau, people think of a windless and rocky beach. Tourists should walk on about a few meters to see a 30m-high statue of Mother Maria shining in the green picturesque forest and sea landscape.

As not so far from Ho Chi Minh City, it is a favorite resort & entertainment destination for those who wish to hide away from the busy city and entertain themselves in a real way

• The essential Vung Tau guide

The pretty seaside town of Vung Tau is the Vietnamese equivalent of fish n’ chips and a few days by the sea. In short, it's where locals go to relax, soak up the sea breeze, and indulge in seafood feasts. Vung Tau may not have Con Dao's paradisiacal white-sand beaches, but just two hours from Ho Chi Minh City, it's perfect for a quick getaway. Here is the perfect guide to your Vung Tau holiday.

Take an early-morning walk on back beach.

Dip your toes in cool water and watch the day wake up on Vung Tau’s beautiful Back Beach. This three kilometer-long strip of sand will entice you to spend a day in the shade of an umbrella, cocktail in hand. A handful of high-end hotels, restaurants, and beach clubs line Back Beach, and local vendors rent umbrellas on the sand. When you’re hungry, break for a delicious seafood lunch overlooking the water. 

TIP: The waves on Back Beach are fairly flat and safe, so it’s a great place to bring little ones.

Tour Villa Blanche 

It’s only a 30-minute trek to the summit of Big Mountain, where you’ll have a panoramic view of Vung Tau city and the coastline. Along the way, stop by Villa Blanche for a quick tour. This colonial mansion was built in the late 1800s as a home for the district’s French governor. Today, Villa Blanche is a quiet museum displaying local and cultural  artefacts. 

Sample the local delicacies

Vung Tau is known for its wide range of mouthwatering dishes made with fresh, local ingredients. Try a fragrant, steaming hot pot of stingray and baby bamboo shoots; or crispy bánh khọt , a mini-pancake made of flour and curry powder, topped with fresh squid or shrimp, green onion and shrimp powder. Each piece is wrapped in lettuce and fresh herbs, then dipped into a mix of fish sauce, papaya and chili.

TIP: Try Vung Tau’s signature bánh khọt at Banh Khot Goc Vu Sua at 14 Nguyen Truong To. The eatery opens from 7am to 2pm on weekdays, and 7am to 8pm on Sundays.

Snap a selfie with Jesus

Vung Tau’s famous Jesus Christ statue was built in 1974, and stands at 32 metres tall. You’ll need to cover about 800 steps up the headland to reach the feet of the statue, plus another 100 steps to its shoulders. Prepare for a steep climb, as well as amazing views from the top.

TIP: Entrance to statue is free, but you’ll need to follow the standard dress code for religious sites.

Visit Ben Dinh fishing village

A short ride from the city, Ben Dinh is populated almost entirely with fishermen and their families. Bright, multi-coloured boats are moored by the beach and the catch is hauled in every morning before sunrise and sorted on the sand. In summer, the locals lay their fish out on nets to dry in the sun. Visitors can walk among the fishing boats, watch the morning’s catch being brought in, and buy fresh seafood to cook later.

Hop across to Hon Ba

Hon Ba is a miniature island off the end of Back Beach that can only be accessed at low tide. Make your way across the rocks and pebbles to the other side, where you can explore the beach for shells, or wander up to see the shrines at Mieu Ba temple, dedicated to the patroness of sailors and fishermen.

Check out the Monkey Temple

About 30km from Back Beach you’ll find Chua Khi (Monkey Temple), a Buddhist pagoda complex that’s home to nearly 200 long-tailed macaques. Nestled among rolling hills a few hundred meters from the ocean, Chua Khi is a popular site for Vietnamese buddhists. The 40-minute ride can be done in a taxi — stop at Long Hai beach for a quick dip in the sea. 

TIP: Be careful with your belongings - the monkeys are quite curious and have been known to steal.

Transport to Vung Tau

Buses - Two comfortable bus companies run between Vung Tau and Ho Chi Minh City: Phuong Trang Bus Company (FUTA Bus) and Hoa Mai. Visit the FUTA Bus office on De Tham to buy tickets, or get the luxury Hoa Mai bus tickets for VND150,000 from 83 Nguyen Thai Binh.

Hydrofoil - The hydrofoil from Saigon River in Ho Chi Minh City to Vung Tau’s Front Beach, takes roughly two hours. Tickets range from VND120,000 to VND250,000. Simply head to Ben Nha Rong Port in District 1 for tickets and schedules.

Step 1: Trip Detail

Taking a trekking tour in Sapa to some villages you will know more about the local life of the hill tribe people there, the culture and enjoy the natural beauty of the mountainous area of North Vietnam. The market tour is also awesome as the market is like a festival in the mountainous area. That is not only the place to see and buy things but also a place people can meet and show their culture, costume.

How to get to Sapa from Hanoi

Sapa is about more than 5 hour-driving from Hanoi. From Hanoi, there are some ways you can get to Sapa like bus, private car, motorbike, train.

By Motorbike:

For adventure travellers, travelling by motorbike is an awesome option. You can rent a motorbike in Hanoi Old Quarter easily and travel on your own or you can book a tour from Hanoi with a  motorbike tour group. Make sure that you have advice from the motorbike renting shop before you travel in Vietnam because the traffic in Vietnam is can be a problem for you.

Travelling to Sapa by night train was an option for many travellers in the past because in the past we did not have a highway from Hanoi to Lao Cai for Sapa. Travelling by train is a safe way and you may save 1 night because you travel at night time so the travelling time is sleeping time. 

However, it is not comfortable to sleep on a train as it is bumpy. There are some good trains for you like Victory Train, Sapaly Train, King Express Train, Fansipan Train…etc.

You can travel from Hanoi at around 10.00 PM and arrive at Lao Cai Station around 6.00 AM the next day. From Lao Cai Station you can take a private car or a bus to Sapa Town. It takes about 1 hour.

By bus/private car

Now, there is a highway from Hanoi to Lao Cai so that is easy to travel from Hanoi to Sapa by a bus or a private car.

It takes about 5.5 hours from Hanoi to drive to Sapa. That seems better than an overnight train as you do not have to sleep on a night train ( of course, in this case, you have to pay for a hotel for an overnight). In the day time, you can see the view on the way. If you are are a big group you may take a private car or van but if you are a small group you can book a luxury bus which starts daily from Hanoi to Sapa and from Sapa to Hanoi.

Is there a flight from Hanoi to Sapa?

Until now there is no flight from Hanoi to Sapa but we may hope in the future there may be a flight from Hanoi to Sapa so you can enjoy the trip more if you like a relaxed trip.

Sapa Attractions

Sapa is one of the top attractions in Northern Vietnam. This charming town was built as a hill station by the French in 1920. Its original name was “Sa Pả” in H’mong language, meaning “Land”. When French came, they wrote “Chapa” because “S” is pronounced almost as same as “Ch” in French, “Sh” in English.

Located approximately 1500 meters above the sea, Sapa carries moderate and rainy weather in the summer, while being cold and occasionally snowy during the winter. Surrounded by dramatic gorges and stepped rice terraces, the landscapes around Sapa are some of northern Vietnam’s most striking. Once you’ve stepped out into the lush fields, you’ll understand the Sapa area’s real charm.

There are a couple of routes you can take through the woods and rice fields. Most of them are straight forward loops around Ta Van village but the paths can get muddy and slippery during the wet season. Before you go, pack some snacks and plenty of water, there aren’t any shops along the way until you cross the suspension bridge back into the village. Also, wear good walking boots, grab a pair of bamboo sticks to help you trek through the sloping bits of the hike and pack a waterproof jacket.

The major work of the Giay is growing rice. Besides, they also produce instruments and engraved silver.

Y Linh Ho village is mostly inhabited by Black H’mong hill tribes and they live in their wooden and bamboo houses.

Y Linh Ho is a small commune composed by a dozens of small hamlets scattering on the very tough mountain terrain with high and steep mountains. According to the elders in the village, the name of Y Linh Ho was named under the name of Mr. Ly Linh Ho – the first man who set up the village. It is said that several Dao people led by Mr. Ly Linh Ho reclaimed the area surrounding Y Linh Ho Village. After a long time of living and building, a new village of Dao people was formed and called Y Linh Ho.

After a period of time, the Dao people in Y Linh Ho started to migrate and the Mong people arrived in the village but the name of Y Linh Ho was still the name of the village to commemorate the person who built the village today.

The location of Y Linh Ho Village is far from the main road. Therefore, you need to pass a quite long, far and winding road to reach it. However, thanks to the isolated location, the village is rather tranquil and peaceful.

Join our Sapa – Cat Cat, Sin Chai Village – Fansipan Tour 2D1N, Daily Departure to visit one of the most interesting destinations not only in North Vietnam but also in the whole country. Sapa is a highland district of Lao Cai province, with a mild and cool climate all year round.

Going to Fansipan Peak regardless of the season, sitting on the cable car cabin turning thousands of clouds, between the vast sky and the Hoang Lien Son mountain range, visitors all have a feeling of peace. That was the beginning of the journey to the land of Buddha. When you put your first steps on the green stone steps covered with dew or the yellow light of the sun, look up high, and you will feel the majestic but peaceful, busy and pure meditation heaven.

See What Our Guests are Saying

Nice experience, very customer-oriented company fast and easy booking, very fast reaction. Mr. Bien a well-prepared guide and enthusiastic. You should try this experience.

JonnoMelbourne

I now refer my friends, family and colleagues, as well as book all of my tours, accommodation and flights with Maika because I feel very lucky to have finally found an organisation in Asia that gives me the confidence to do so.

The tour was very well organized, and the guide spoke very good English. We got to see and experience so many things: Besides visiting a pagoda and Buddha statue, we also went on a boat ride (with a stop to enjoy a coconut drink) and visited local businesses producing rice paper, conical hats and mats. We had fresh fruit and tea for a snack and Pho soup for lunch which was delicious! We had such a good day and would highly recommend this tour!

We went on this tour, two families of four, with children aged 9-12 years old. We were really happy with it and highly recommend. Lin was our guide and she was fantastic, would really do a trip with her again. It was nice to do this privately and easy to adjust with Lin if needed. Maika helped us book the accommodation in Can Tho which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend and for sure do again.

PaulSoltheran

You did a great job looking after all of our family of 7. The kids enjoyed all the tours and especially the Mekong cruise …as did we……because the kids were so happy we got to enjoy some time to ourselves too. I would recommend Maika Tours if your thinking of visiting Vietnam!
