The 36 best beaches in and around Vung Tau

About 2km of frontage under construction currently west end is clear and usable...dangerous rip currents here so going beyond waist deep is not recommended at this date and time

Vung Tau Back Beach – Tranquil Waves and Local Charm Located on the southeastern coast of Vietnam, Back Beach (Bãi Sau) in Vũng Tàu is a long stretch of golden sand that offers a refreshing, laid-back alternative to the country’s busier beach destinations. Known for its wide shoreline, gentle waves, and breezy atmosphere, Back Beach is the preferred spot for locals and returning visitors who appreciate its relaxed rhythm and everyday authenticity. The beach stretches for several kilometers along Thùy Vân Street, where you’ll find a mix of hotels, seafood restaurants, small cafés, and local markets. The vibe here is less about luxury and more about comfort, routine, and the simple joy of sand and sea. Mornings and late afternoons are especially vibrant, with families picnicking, children playing in the surf, and older locals practicing tai chi or flying kites. The sea is generally warm and inviting, with moderate waves ideal for swimming or light bodyboarding. Lifeguards are often present in more popular areas, and umbrellas and loungers are available for rent. While the midday sun can be intense, it’s the cooler hours—especially during sunset—when the beach comes alive with color and community. For photographers, Back Beach offers lovely natural light, sweeping coastal views, and a chance to capture real, everyday moments in a seaside town. For travelers, it’s a place to slow down, enjoy fresh seafood, sip Vietnamese iced coffee under a parasol, or stroll barefoot along the tide. While not a polished tourist hotspot, Vũng Tàu’s Back Beach has its own charm—genuine, friendly, and connected to local life. It’s a perfect destination for those seeking a peaceful coastal escape just a few hours from Ho Chi Minh City.

Currently under massive construction. There are no restaurants or food, only a few vendors selling snacks and drinks. At the entrance are water closets and showers. The beach is very walkable, extending 2 kms to the right and several kms to the left. The waves are not large but there is a tremendous amount of garbage on the beach, especially at the high water mark. No efforts are made to clean the beach however after the construction is done next year I'm sure they'll send out cleanup crews. Sadly, there are also numerous tarballs on the beach from the oil rigs off the coast.

The sea view is acceptable, and it is the closest beach to Ho Chi Minh City. Both times I visited this place were for team-building activities. Next time, I should come here purely for sightseeing.

Spectacular views with a vibrant community! Definitely recommend it to anyone..

Had a wonder day trip to Vung Tau. Hope the beach (under construction and full of rubbish now) is open soon! This place is just a short trip from Ho Chi Minh City, is a lovely coastal escape! Our family really enjoyed the relaxed vibe. The beaches, especially Back Beach is well loved by locals, seems great for swimming and building sandcastles (but might not appeal to tourist) with gentle waves for the kids. We loved exploring the Christ the King statue, try climbing up for incredible views – quite a workout, but worth it! There are also plenty of delicious seafood spots. It's a wonderful blend of beach relaxation and interesting sights for everyone.

So fresh and cool. I have memories with my father and family here. These memories will always be in my heart❤️ for the rest of my life

Basically a locals only beach! Not a lot of foreign travelers here yet. Last time I came was 8 years ago and it was packed, this time basically empty. Can't say which I like more, the peace and quiet (you tune out the seafood sellers....which is part of the atmosphere) of an empty beach or the busy hussle of a booming beach with locals partying down drinking beer. It was a Wednesday so maybe it was just middle of the week lull. Either way I enjoy both busy parties or slow and relaxing so maybe time your visit for weekend or week day depending on your style. There was a small fish in season and fisher man were busy bringing their fish to the beach front "market". There was a tractor that hauls their little bathtub boats in and off the beach which was cool to watch. Shared a beer with one of the fisherman who was bringing his catch in. My kids loved it the sand, warm water and all the other kids to play with. The waves here are a LOT smaller than Vung Tau so great for kids and wind hits the beach at an angle and the current moves likewise. The selling gig (seafood, cabanas etc.) when you get there is a bit much but that's just part of the deal. Forieners by moped use paid parking for 10k per moped all day and don't lose your valet ticket, safe here. Feel free too BYOB, cups, snacks etc it will save you some serious money which you can use in the local seafood the ladies sell. I do miss that they used to cook right in front of you....I paid a lady to grill some of my one sun squid and I'm pretty sure she ate some...at least she enjoyed it! Weekday price was 400k for 8 chairs 4 tables and whole "tent".

Normal beach with white soft sand. There were vendors offering sea food and drinks. The water was warm and quite clean, but in the sand was trash. There is also a shower area for 15k VND.

It is more beautiful to more you reach the end of the beach in the corner southbound.There is a buddhist monastery there and once you passed that the beach gets more quiet and beautiful but that’s 1,5 km away. At the common beach area of the pictures it’s usually busy with visitors including people selling ice cream. Recommend to come to the beach at low tide!! High tide unrecommended.

If you go to Long Hai Beach and spot this restaurant... Don’t just walk—RUN! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️💨 We ordered seafood and the owner instructed us grab a seat. Later, they billed us 100K/chair. Who in the world pays for a chair just to sit and eat at their own establishment? The fact that they did not let us know ahead of time that we were going to be charged for the chairs was very misleading and dishonest. Though seafood was overpriced, but the worst part was the attitude we received.

Nice beach away from the touristy area! Lots of food options in Long Hai.

Many rock here, you can take some rocks home. The water is not so pured but still fine to swim.

There was very beautiful scenery

ChatGPT said: Doi Nhai Beach, located in the northern part of Vung Tau, is a quieter and more rustic alternative to the city’s busier stretches of coastline. Far from the tourist crowds, it offers a more authentic and laid-back atmosphere, making it a favorite among locals who come here to relax, fish, or enjoy a simple picnic by the sea. The beach is wide and sandy, bordered by shallow waters that stretch far out during low tide, revealing tidal flats dotted with small fishing boats. This creates a peaceful, open landscape where the horizon seems endless. In the early morning, the scene is particularly charming, with fishermen casting their nets and the soft light reflecting off the gentle waves. Unlike the more developed Front and Back Beaches, Doi Nhai retains a raw, natural feel. There are fewer amenities, which adds to its appeal for those seeking a slower pace and a genuine connection with the local way of life. Small seafood stalls and family-run eateries nearby serve freshly caught fish and shellfish, often grilled to order and best enjoyed with a sea breeze. Evenings at Doi Nhai are tranquil, with the sounds of the ocean and the sight of distant lights shimmering across the water. It’s not a beach for luxury or high-energy entertainment, but rather for moments of quiet beauty, cultural authenticity, and a reminder of Vung Tau’s fishing heritage.

The road to the beach is really raidy and dirty. The bay is really beautiful, but unfortunately the beach is often full of waste coming from the sea. However, the area is quiet and perfect for Kite Surfing

It is pretty good if your’re using the fish catching to experience, the ocean water is a bit dirty, but the worst thing here is if you sleep here at night. Mosquitoes will come out and bite you till they die

great spot! very beautiful

The beach can look quite different if during low or high tide. I must admit that the sea brings plastics, bottles and different stuff and unfortunately the municipality don't care about it. Some people spend the night mostly at weekends under a camping tent. Also some kitesurfers visit the spot.

If you want to catch sea creatures and play on a very large beach low tide then this is your place. Time it so you’re there an hour before the tide is the lowest. Then have fun. It’s great for kids of all age.

A relaxing day. Not much to do but relax. It's a nice little spot.

Unlike other beaches in Vung Tau, Strawberry Beach, also known as Bai Dau, is situated in a tranquil area where several renowned checkpoints and worship places, including the Mother Mary and the Child Jesus statue and Bodhisattva pagoda, are located. Consequently, Strawberry Beach is an ideal destination for individuals seeking solitude and tranquility, as well as photography enthusiasts who desire to capture serene but breathtaking images. Given that this location does not draw tourists for swimming due to its rocky cliffs and uneven seabed, visitors can enjoy the sunrise and sunset in a fresh air atmosphere without being disturbed by the surrounding environment.

Bai Dau (Strawberry beach) is not a clean and clear beach so not good for swimming.

Beautiful landscape, nice place and space. Good for a break.

Sunset on Bai Dau beach. Only peace. Everything.

Nice view on sea. While comming to this place, you have the luck to sea beautifull view along the road, between sea and mountain.

Bai Dau mother of God. The place to pray

the scene is delightful except rubbish at nearby the sea.

This place have nothing, the service very bad, expensive fee, never come back.

The natural place, but not clear. I see many nilon bag, garbage,...

This is a place that locals also come for beach, ticket is 20.000 VND and 20.000 more for taking a shower after you went to the beach.

It is a nice natural beach with a very basic services. A good place for those who love a natural sight which not crowded with lot of people!

there are a lot of garbage. But nice view

Amazing view

too hot

Good spot of Bai Dua, but surprisingly we need to pay parking for 10.000 VND, prepare small money to go to this beach

Okay beach with some natural rocks.

Previously, this beach and "O Quan" (Au Vent) beach nearby were very beautiful. But now Dua Beach is quickly degrading because the houses and restaurants are discharging wastewater to the sea. We can't swim here.

No beach no place to swim, full of trash. What a shame. Waste of time.

While the beach is rocky, there are spots good for swimming. Nice place if you are looking for something more peaceful

This is my favorite beach in Vung Tau - a clean, quiet beach with nice swimmers…

Small beach, well oriented to W-SW winds for kitesurfing

One of the best beaches in Vung Tau. Cleaner and less artificial than other beaches of the city. Mostly used by locals and not very popular for tourists, but very nice experienced to give it a try. Raw seafoods are offered directly by local fishing boats.

It's a public beach but it's pretty dirty, lots of plastic pollution scattered around.

Ok.

Very nice ! Great beach, clean and quiet.

The beach is a pile of trash. The water's less dirty than downtown. The more visitors, the more plastic bags and cups floating.

Free beach. But it was messy and dirty. Also, guard your belongings well!

Ok

Nice beach You can swim here. Not too crowded. Not a good place to see sunset though

Not a really a beach to spend the day and swim (though you can). But it was a nice stop on our scooter ride along the coast. Got here at 1pm on a Wednesday in December and there were only four other guys and us.

Ok

(Translated by Google) This is the first time I have come to Phuoc Hai, as well as Loc An Beach. Just follow Google Maps and you will reach the right place. - This beach is still very wild, with few tourists, and the sea breeze is very cool. The left and right sides of the beach have been blocked by military checkpoints (there are signs prohibiting filming and taking pictures in this area). - Around the beach, there are many beautiful sea morning glory flowers. - From Loc An Beach, we can see Loc An Embankment in the distance. It gives us a wonderful feeling. - There are not many shops here. When I went, I only saw one girl selling ice cream. So if you want to come here, remember to bring food and drinks. And remember to bring a trash bag to put the trash in the right place because I did not see any trash cans in this area. - There is also trash here that may have been left by visitors and players. - Everyone should come here to experience it when they have the opportunity to visit Phuoc Hai. Note: Do not litter so we can still have great experiences at this beach. (Original) Đây là lần đầu tiên mình đến với Phước Hải, cũng như Bãi tắm Lộc An. Các bạn cứ đi theo google maps sẽ tới đúng địa điểm này. - Bãi tắm này còn rất hoang sơ, ít khách du lịch, gió biển rất mát mẻ. Bên trái và bên phải của bãi tắm đã bị chặn lại bởi chốt quân sự (có biển báo cấm quay phim, chụp ảnh khu vực này). - Xung quanh bãi tắm có nhiều hoa rau muống biển rất đẹp. - Từ bãi tắm Lộc An chúng ta có thể nhìn thấy Bờ kè Lộc An xa xa. Đem lại 1 cảm giác rất tuyệt vời cho chúng ta. - Ở đây không có nhiều hàng quán. Lúc mình đi chỉ thấy 1 cô bán kem thôi. Nên mọi người muốn đến đây chơi nhớ đem theo thức ăn, đồ uống nhé. Và nhớ mang theo túi đựng rác để mang rác để đúng nơi quy định do khu vực này mình không thấy có thùng rác nào. - Ở đây cũng có rác có thể do khách tham quan, vui chơi để lại. - Mọi người nên đến đây trải nghiệm thử khi có dịp ghé Phước Hải nhé. Lưu ý: Đừng xả rác bừa bãi để chúng ta còn có những trải nghiệm tuyệt vời ở bãi tắm này.

(Translated by Google) Super beautiful beach, much cleaner than VT, great for swimming, went on Saturday afternoon but not crowded or deserted. Self-bathing beach so no security guard standing on the shore but the sand is jasmine, the waves are calm, swimming is quite safe. (Original) bãi biển siêu đẹp sạch hơn VT nhiều tắm siêu thích luôn, đi chiều t7 nhưng không đông vắng vẻ. Bãi tự tắm nên không có bảo vệ đứng trông trên bờ nhưng bãi cát lài, sóng êm tắm khá yên tâm.

(Translated by Google) The beach is still pristine, free to swim! The sand is not too deep, so you feel safe when swimming! But the sea water still has a fishy smell and is not very clean! (Original) Bãi biển còn hoang sơ, tự do tắm! Bãi cát trãi dài ko quá sâu came giác an tâm khi tắm! Nhưng nước biển vẫn có gì đó tanh và không đc sạch lắm!

(Translated by Google) The beach is very beautiful, the water is blue, and still wild. I went at 5pm, the water receded far from the shore. There were a lot of shellfish, walking on it felt great. Next to it was a pine garden. Above was the setting sun, below the blue sea, there were more trees. The view was beautiful. I picked up a basket of shells, a small starfish. No one was selling anything in the area. To take a fresh water bath, go to the beginning of the alley. There was a rocky shore but I didn't go up there because I had been walking around the beach catching snails until after 6pm. After going back, I always remembered the afternoon sea view. (Original) Bãi biển rất đẹp, nước xanh, còn hoang sơ. Mình đi lúc 5h chiều, nước rút xa bờ. Xác của sò ốc có rất nhiều, bước đi trên đó cảm giác thích lắm. Kế bên có vườn thông. Trên mặt trời đang lặn, ở dưới biển xanh, có thêm hàng cây nữa. Ngắm cảnh đẹp lắm. Mình lượm được rổ vỏ ốc, 1 sao biển nhỏ. Khu vực ko có ai bán gì hết nha. Tắm nước ngọt thì ra đầu hẻm. Có bờ đá nhưng mình không lên, tại dạo biển bắt ốc tới hơn 6h rồi. Đi xong về nhớ hoài cảnh biển buổi chiều luôn

Warning!! You pay 150.000 vnd to go in. It's local beach front connected to nearby free beach 5 min walk. If you don't speak their language you won't get anything. They will sell you the cheapest item for the highest price on the menu. Google Translate won't help you. They will cheat you whenever they have the chance. Beach is relatively clean. No tourist here. Bring own supplies! Can shower and have bathrooms.

(Translated by Google) Extremely bad compared to the neighboring beaches, especially in terms of service, no food service, customers have to go buy it themselves and then have to buy a charcoal stove for 200k, which is too bad, the beach is not as comfortable as the daffodils and dragons. There are very few customers on Sundays, no wonder the service is so boring (without a swimming pool like Long Cung, the ticket is 150k, not cheaper than other places), people don't need to stop by to know, just a word of discouragement. (Original) Tệ cực kỳ so với các bãi bên cạnh nhất là khoản dịch vụ, k phục vụ đồ ăn khách phải tự đi mua sau đó về phải mua bếp than với giá 200k quá mất dạy, bãi tắm k thoải đều như bên thủy tiên với long cung, khách chủ nhật mà rất ít bảo sao do dịch vụ quá chán (k có hồ bơi như long cung vé cũng 150k chứ k rẻ hơn chỗ khác), mọi người k cần phải ghé cho biết đâu, chỉ một từ nản.

Nice, not really clean and really good but a nice to enjoy the beach in Vung Tau.

Ok

(Translated by Google) Spacious car park. Ticket price 150k/adult including table, fresh water shower,... in general very reasonable. The beach is long and there is no trash. Everything was perfect until the resort rented out karaoke speakers to guests. It was extremely noisy and tortured everyone from the time we were studying until the time my family had to leave because they couldn't stand it anymore. I went to the beach to relax, my family had fun, I didn't need to listen to the ladies singing cheesy songs. I thought this resort was a secret, but it turned out to be just a joke. If this resort doesn't have regulations on karaoke speakers in the future, I won't come back and will advise everyone not to come. (Original) Bãi đậu xe hơi rộng rãi. Giá vé 150k/ng lớn gồm cả bàn ghé, tắm nước ngọt,... nói chung rất hợp lý. Bãi biển dài và ko có rác. Mọi chuyện hoàn hảo cho đến khi KDL cho khách mướn loa kéo hát karaoke. Vô cùng ồn ào và tra tấn người khác suốt từ lúc học đến cho đến lúc gia đình phải đi về vì hết chịu nổi. Mình đi biển nghỉ ngơi, gia đình vui chơi, không có nhu cầu nghe các cô các thím hát nhạc sến. Cứ tưởng KDL này là secret hóa ra cũng chỉ là lè khe thôi. Nếu KDL này ko có quy định về loa kéo trong tương lai thì mìh sẽ ko ghé lại và sẽ khuyên tất cả mn đừng đến.

(Translated by Google) Charge 150k per person but it's so bad that guests got scratches and bleeding while swimming in the sea. There wasn't even a bottle of antiseptic water or a piece of sanitary napkin. The bathroom was dirty and old. (Original) Thu mỗi ngừoi 150k nhưng tệ tới mức Khách bị trầy chảy máu khi tắm biển không có nổi 1 chai nứoc xát khuẩn 1 miếng băng gạt phòng tắm dơ kinh cũ kỉ

(Translated by Google) Why is there no driver to eat with the guests? (Original) Lý do gì ko có tài xế vào ăn cùng khách

Unique place in Vung Tau on the water. Beach is very nice but super small as far as beach going. However, would recommend to stop by and enjoy it as waters are calm and there is large swimming area to enjoy. Beach is connected with a park with lots benches , pretty close to food establishments, and there are showers available as well. Very nice place which gets busy in the afternoons with locals enjoying it and the water.

Nice to walk during night time. Peacefull & full of sea atmosphere.

A quite nice beach that people can swim and have a walk along the hall. But keep the beach tidy and clean especially the plastic rubbish.

Nice for strolling around and catch the sunset.

Front Beach is one of my favourite spots on Vung Tau Island. The French had a more romantic name for this idyllic small beach, Coconut Bay. Early mornings are special. Take your camera. The small fishing boats have returned from the night's fishing, and you will see the wives and family helping load the night's catch onto motorcycles, to rush them to the morning fish markets. Take plenty of photos, but do not get in the way. Evenings on the beach are more relaxed and Front Beach becomes the typical tropical beach. Fishermen slowly prepare for another night at sea. Once the sun has set, and most people have left, you might be lucky enough to watch the owl couple hunt on the waterline.

Nice area with a quaint beach and green, clean park. Front Beach was significantly cleaner than Back Beach when I visited on February 10, 2024. If you also want to get away from the worst of the wind and waves, Front Beach sits back enough in a cove to not be nearly as affected as Back Beach is in those conditions. Very small sandy area at high tide but still several families out and enjoying it. The park around Front Beach is beautiful, spacious, and perfect for picnics.

nothing much to do except sit there and look at the water, when i went it sea looked dirty and there is no sand, only rock. only some tree 🌳 and the ledge to sit. i see many people there at night but at night it is also so dark that i cant see anything 😁 if you want beach go south to valley beach, its good 🏖️

We stayed here for 1 month and loved it. There are no big chain shops, but there is good infrastructure and the roads are very quiet at all times. Monkeys are easily seen along the road sides. Sadly, local government seems disinterested to clean up the trash found at ALL beauty spots and beaches. A lot of trash is washed in from the sea, a lot with Chinese or Korean wrappings. However, more is dropped by locals and people who don't care. There is 1 group that cleans a beach each Sunday morning. They have much work cut out for them. Most visitors are Vietnamese who come to lay gifts on the grave of Vo Thi Sau and ask for good fortune. Big army presence. This is an up and coming tourist destination. Most people only visit for a day or 2. Good museum and the prison is open. But tickets at the museum.

This island is absolutely amazing. I stayed on the island for 5 days and loved every second of it. It’s amazing how not touristy this island is. I hope it stays that way for long time to come. The only reason I’m deducting a star is that there is so much trash on this island. Me and my boyfriend were trying to find some hidden beaches and when we got there we got so sad as the whole beach and path leading to there were covered with trash. I really hope that the people who live of this island get educated more about the side effects of doing this.

Great getaway from the usual tourist paths . Roads are great and can safely circumnavigate most of the island via scooter in as much time as you’d like to take . Relaxed environment with lovely people . Negatives were that we found most beaches covered in garbage unfortunately and sandflies can cause some discomfort . Water itself is pristine and clear however . Con Dao has an interesting yet checkered history that some might find disturbing but it’s the realistic side fortunately preserved of how things were in the past . Would definitely visit again but for 1 week at a time would be enough for us . Still feels like a sleepy little interesting fishing village where tourism is trying to raise its head slowly . We loved it minus the litter !

Still rather undeveloped, the accommodations are limited to few hotels and home stays. Restaurant service is under average. Great place for backpacks and the more adventure tourists. For the typical tourist the only decent place to stay is the resort which is very pricey. The beaches are still clean and not overcrowded but can be ranked as average, nothing exceptional about them. The diving and snorkeling is also very average. If you are expecting an exceptional experience you may be disappointed. If you just want a place to relax then it may suit your needs. The most disadvantage here as tourist destination is how to get here. The boat ride is too long (4hr from Vung Tau or 2.5hr from Soc Trang, both are inconvenient from Saigon). The plane ride is only by small prop airplanes which could be bumpy at times. The government also plays up the relics of the former prison as an attraction, but it only has limited effect, mostly for local Vietnamese. There is a superstition following cult believing in some dead prisoners. They gathered as crowds every night about midnight at the tombstone of a young girl believing she has power to grant fortunes to those who worship her. It’s quite a scene to watch.

The best place you can enjoy many adventurous sports such as: scuba diving, freediving, trekking, camping. You should go there from Mar-Sept. Enjoy

Beautiful island and hopefully it’s not ready for mass tourism. Also the island has a sad past, but you can see in the museum and the historical places what exactly happened. So it’s not just a paradise, i mean it’s now, but it’s good to know about the history.

Con Dao Islands, also known as Con Dao National park, are an archipelago of 16 mostly uninhabited islets just off the southern coast of Vietnam, each of which offering expansive beaches shaded with evergreen trees. Great for savvy travellers looking to escape bustling city life, the main island also boasts miles of coastal roads, hiking trails and a wide range of outdoor activities. The main (and only inhabited) island, Con Son was once the site of French-run prisons for Vietnamese involved in the independence movement. Most of the derelict prisons are located in Con Son Town, where you can visit the prison cells, and infamous tiger cages. Many locals visit Con Son to pay their respects to revolutionaries such as Vo Thi Sau, the first women on the island to have been executed by the French.

Went here at sunrise for a photography trip. Recommend go early if you want a quiet relax place.

Mostly untouched area. One can definjt enjoy some quiet time here. There are some camp spots as well. We have been walking along the shoreline for 30 minutes and there was a constant stretch of plastic rubbish. Disgusting!

Far from HCMC around 100km, located in Ba Ria Vung Tau, Ho Coc beach quite crowded but still a beautifull place to go at the weekend or holiday.

The trip was so EXCITED! I was surprised about the landscape of 4 Seasons Beach! What a peacful and stunning scenry. Besides food price was reasonable and it was also fresh and delicous either.

This place is beautiful, but it's full of garbage

Wonderful Beach,Blue Sky,White Sand ☁️⛅️☁️🌊🌊

We went on our school trip to this place. It was very fun to stay here. The food was delicious. The beaches were beautiful and the sunset was great. At night, you can see many stars in the sky and I even spotted 2 planes flying with lights on. The hotel rooms were kinda clean and I had a good sleep. Will return to this place again if possible!

Đình Thắng Tam is a historic temple in Vung Tau dedicated to local deities, including the Whale God, which fishermen traditionally worship for protection at sea. While it holds cultural and spiritual significance, I didn’t find it particularly impressive. The architecture is simple with some traditional carvings, and the temple serves as a venue for local festivals. It’s worth a quick visit if you’re nearby, but it may not stand out as a must-see attraction.

Visited on 20 August morning as part of my tour from Saigon. Learnt about how whales supported residents in fishing. Saw a large model of whale at their main door. When I visited, there were other tours and tourists who were present there as well.

Visited whale temple in vietnam. Fascinated by the story behind it. Good experience

A temple complex that has a few temples and I assume this is the main one.

Interesting place of worship, small little temple but fascinating to see the culture, the whales and the history of the place

Whale temple was ok, very small so will take last than 10mins. They have the bones of the whale (apparently 18m long).

Small and colourful museum. Rather accessible. You will meet friendly and welcoming staff when going there. I would recommend to look for some info about the museum and why the whale is so worshipped there. And yes, the visit will take max 10-15 min. The entrance is free.

The hall is big & beautifull, the staffs are nice and kind, the parking area is covenient, and the toilet is clean. Despite all those good thing, the minus points are food and sound. The food is so so and music is keep coming song after song and too loud to talk during the wedding event.

Nice architecture, parking ok but cost 5000 vnd, minimalism style, food is good, most staff are ok, but there is only one who serve the dish badly to my friend, the food shaking when she placing the dish to the table must be hurry I suuposed

Beautiful design. It's a place for girls' dream weddings. The food is pretty good, but the beef was too tough. The bad thing is that the traffic in front is soooo bad.

Good

Still in the Top premium halls in HCMC with good service/ delicious food Nice decoration & good Audio Visual system for wedding & average events from 500 - 2,000 pax.

There are no elevators from parking B to ground floor . Well decorated !

Attended a real estate event here and the place is very nice. It's an event center that hosts numerous wedding and corporate events. Spacious, well kept and extremely clean

It's beach. There is a big space for chairs and tables. It seems it's not cheap to use them, but many people were there and were grilling the seafood that they brough. There is a small restaurant but nobody there. Almost all people bring their food and grilled. When I went there, the watere were filled already, so there was no more beach at this side. I think better to come here in the morning and having lunch and go home after the lunch. I think many people do like this.

Long Cung Beach boasts a pristine beauty with white sand, blue sea, and rows of cool coconut trees that create an airy and peaceful atmosphere. It’s an ideal destination for families, groups of friends, and backpackers alike. The water is clean, the waves are gentle, and the beach is equipped with sunbeds, umbrellas, freshwater showers, and a few small eateries serving fresh seafood. Besides swimming, you can enjoy activities such as kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, picnicking, or even camping right by the shore. Rental services for huts, umbrellas, and chairs are clearly priced, with lifeguards always on duty to ensure safety. Conveniently located just about 5 km from downtown Vung Tau, it’s easy to reach. A perfect getaway to escape the city’s hustle and bustle and soak up the refreshing sea breeze!

Located on a tranquil area, which is quite far from Vung Tau city, the Long Cung beach offers not only sea-bathing but also hotels and restaurants as its name suggests.

It’s not that bad but for the price that high I must expected more. The service was poor, they have no support the customer what so ever beyond the ticket gate. There was a karaoke speaker zone only but other just but their speaker everywhere and disturb everyone peace without employees warning. Also no one around to point you to WC. The Bath service was too crowd and no concept of get in line; they even spray the water everywhere, again, no employees around to warn them. And the biggest complain is WC. It was so dirty, what is this? Even the WC in army camp not that broke and dirty, with that kind of money you guy should upgraded your WC to normal human standards. Water not that clean, but cant complain about that, just a little cherry on the top of whatever that thing in the WC is.

one word come to mind 'Meh'. i guess i expect a little more when i see the word resort. very basic and cheap cover area with a few chair and table. there are a couple of pool, even one for kids. beach side is super small and underwhelming. i recommend you bring your own food because the food here is nether fresh or good. restroom area look like it should be quarantine.

The shower and toilet area is very dirty and disorganized.

A nice view for the weekend with your family!

Bạch Dinh, also known as the White Palace, is a beautiful historical site in Vung Tau that’s definitely worth a visit. The palace itself is a blend of French colonial architecture, with elegant white facades and intricate details. Inside, you'll find fascinating exhibits of antique furniture, ceramics, and artifacts, all providing a glimpse into Vietnam's past. The gardens surrounding the palace are lush and peaceful, with scenic views overlooking the ocean and the city below. It’s a great spot to learn about history, enjoy the natural surroundings, and take some memorable photos. However, it is very hot and humid.

A beautiful museum which used to be residence of Joseph Athanase Doumer (born March 22, 1857 in Aurillac , Cantal , died May 7, 1932 in Paris ), who was a French politician . He was Governor-General of Indochina from 1897 to 1902. Many tourists come during the weekend. Locals from Vũng Tàu hardly come.

Visited on 20 August as part of my day tour to Vung Tau. Glad to learn more about the previous holiday destination of previous ruler of the area. Spent around 30 minutes at the destination. There were mainly local visitors when I visited, such as those with friends and boyfriends/girlfriends.

On the last visit to Vung Tau I had the chance to visit this house. Residence of the governor if Conchichine in the late 800. The place is well preserved to slow a family lifestyle. Very interesting visit, nothing exceptional but a good way to pass a few hours.

Nice museum, lots of thing to see, good place to learn about Vung Tau history. A/C, great to visit on a rainy day.

A pleasant villa on expansive grounds overlooking the coast. Sparse as a museum, showing the basic furnishings used at the time of the Governor-General. Not much in the way of Historical description, but you can still hear the whispering of the kitchen staff in the barren basement, muttering about the lack of supplies and empty larder. A fine place to stop by on your way to someplace else.

Good place to wrap up your Vung Tau trip. Beware of monkeys and mosquitos

Can be viewed from Cap Saint-Jacques lookout point or north along the coast from there. During low tide you can also walk out to the little island. Quite beautiful when it’s surrounded by water at high tide.

There is a stone path that appears after low tide and it depend on how lucky you are. Such a wonderful experience!

The hon ba island looks like a stingray, I guess going at the island really depends on the water tide and current as you get trappes in the island. If you will go in thr island make sure to walk along the shores and not on the pavement walkway, the walkway goes up. From the back beach; just walk on the shore until you reach the island, from the front beach you could walk along the walkway but it will be too far so just get a ride to the back beach.

How the path of rocks gets underwater once the tide gets high Beware if you visit the small island because once the tide is up you have to swim if you want to return to the beach

Oh no... Unbelievable!!! I really like this

so beautiful island!

beautiful

Hidden gem of a Buddhist monastery and reclining Buddha statue spread out over multiple small peaks. Small climb up to see the pagoda and then you can keep exploring as there are hidden temples and statues around every corner. Peaceful shady place worth a visit just for the tranquility even for non-Buddhists

They say it had one of the bones of Buddha. It's an ok place. Sorry I wasn't impressed as it wasn't kept well.

Pure beauty. Such attention to details. The most magnificent buildings.

one of the largest pagoda and most famous tourist attractions in Vung Tau, built at the foothill of the Big mountain in 1963. Quite busy on weekends and Buddhist events

It's completely free parking and admission into this temple. It located on the backside of the Big Mountain in Vung Tau. It's one of the MUST visit.

First if you are old and or in poor health don't try this one. If you ned any assistance walking or in a wheelchair ♿. I didn't see an elevator 😕. It's a LONG way up and many, many steps to climb. I'm almost 70 and the gal I was with was approximately 52 years old and couldn't go passed the first steps. But besides the statues, man the boulders/rocks were HUGE...The trees 🌳 also were many, many, many years old. Beautiful trees... it was worth the climb. Vendors are selling the wares which is somewhat annoying and takes away from the beauty of the place.

Good place but it quite hot once the time I arrived it probably good for other religions as well but still require some Buddhism to go with because there is no information with help other to understand

Pineapple Beach only appears at medium to low tides, but people swim here at all times. It is a quiet beach even though it is flanked by Ha Long Street. It is probably the best place for spectacular sunsets. There is a lifeguard on duty during the day. There are rubbish on the beach after heavy rains, but it is like all the other beaches in Vung Tau of the cleanest beaches in Vietnam.

The beautifull beach! But there are many rocks so it is not suggested to swim.

An okay beach with some rocks.

Best beach in Vung Tau. Nobody there. Very little rubbish.

Small beach. When the sea is high there is not much beach left, then you need to go into the sea from the rocks.

Nice beach of Vung Tau.

(Translated by Google) I went in March, just happened to pass by and saw this beautiful place so I stopped by, it's very beautiful, there are small and pretty rocks. (Original) Mình đi vào tháng 3, chỉ là vô tình đi ngang thấy chổ này đẹp nên ghé vào, rất là đẹp nha, có bãi đá nhỏ nhỏ xinh xinh

Front Beach Park (Bãi Trước Park) is a popular seaside promenade located along the Front Beach in Vung Tau, Vietnam. It serves as a vibrant recreational area for both locals and tourists, offering scenic views of the ocean, nearby hills, and the city skyline. Easily reachable on foot, by motorbike, or taxi from most parts of Vung Tau. A well-maintained promenade ideal for walking, jogging, or cycling while enjoying ocean views. Shaded areas, gardens, and seating spots provide relaxing spaces for visitors Includes cultural and historical landmarks, adding interest along the park route. The park comes alive in the evening with lights, street food vendors, and lively crowds.

Clean but didn't see any restrooms. Have seen better beaches. Didn't see any sand either to call it a beach

Nice view very relax low tide can walk around

Apart from the park simply being beautiful, there is something very peaceful and relaxing about the park. It is very popular with families for their kids to run around and explore, cute dogs zooming, sniffing and exploring, old people ambling along and of course the colourful little fishing boats bobbing up and down in the water.

Front Beach park is a peaceful and beautiful beach with many leisure activities around. Book street, coffee shops, restaurants, museum..you can walking along the sea side, swimming... You should come and try some drinks 🍸 and foods near the along the beach ⛱, seafood was delicious, drinks just okay sometimes but there was so many nice and romantic views. There was so crowded on holiday and weekend. We'll be back 💙💙💙🌿

Yeah, it was ok. Lotsa boats parked up. Several large container ships headed across the back. Yeah it was okm

Formerly, i was swimming here but now i can't. The sea water is not good due to the city discharged waste water to the sea for many years. The road and the park are good but the sculptures are bad. Love the coconut trees. The fishers and fishing are so lovely. Should clear all the houses and the restaurants on the Front seaside to clean the Front Coast. The Back Beach made that so The Front Beach has to make that.

Thiền viện Trúc Lâm Chân Nguyên, or the "Monkey Temple," was such a fun and unique experience! The temple itself is beautiful and peaceful, surrounded by mountains and lush greenery. It’s a great spot to relax, take in the scenery, and appreciate the spiritual vibe. But let’s talk about the monkeys—they’re everywhere! They’re super playful and not shy at all. It’s really fun to watch them climb around the temple grounds and interact with visitors. Just be careful with your bags or food because they can get a little mischievous. If you love nature, animals, and a bit of adventure mixed with culture, this is a must-visit. It’s not too crowded, and the atmosphere is so calming. I’d recommend going early in the morning to enjoy the cool air and peaceful surroundings

Beautyfull Buddhist temple. I visited it early morning on a working day, so it wasn't busy. It is a very quiet and solemn place. Surely worth to visit.

Quiet space, fresh air. Solemn Buddha worship, clean scenery. Spacious car parking. Should stop by if you come to Long Hai

Beautiful, peaceful and quiet... Especially, there are many monkeys live around the temple. I would recommend you to go up the mountain behind the temple where you can have a helicopter view to the ocean and feel fresh & cool air as well.

Famous pagoda for tourists. Nice view when you climb up.Can feed monkeys here

Peaceful Place with a lot of monkey, Highly Recommended when you travel to Long Hai

Beautiful

Ok

Tor lam

It's a petrol station...

Fast and friendly

Bad

Oil refill

Big flat beach, ideal for walking or playing, no good for swimming. Large wooded shady area with props for photographing your models. Rooms are reasonably large with TV, fridge, air conditioning. Basic toiletries supplied. There is a lift in the accommodation building. Good getaway for the weekend, just over an hour from HCMC on a freeway. Meals and bar facilities available. Has a large clean swimming pool and secure area for overnight storage of motor bikes. 700,000VnD includes breakfast.

It's port. You can go to HCMC and Con Dao from here.

Horrible experience, the company cancelled my ticket due to bad weather but refuse to refund me. They even stopped answering to my e-mails. This is absolutely awful. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

beautiful!!!

Ok

Good job 👍

(Translated by Google) The cruise port in the city is convenient for travel. Taking the train feels good, but sitting for a few hours is a bit tiring. During the week the train is very empty, almost enough for each person in a row of seats (Original) Cảng tàu trong thành phố đi lại thuận tiện. Tàu tưởng đi cũng thích mà ngồi mấy tiếng cũng hơi mệt.
