Hồ Cốc
A coastline north of Hồ Tràm where sand, dunes and greenery meet. Hồ Cốc is an alternative to Vũng Tàu’s promenade, though separate access points have different characters.
Getting there
Plan a drive or transfer via the coastal route and agree on your preferred beach section. Arranged return transport is practical for a day trip.
Swimming & sea
Even a quiet-looking beach can have substantial shorebreak. Ask about the permitted swimming area and stay out near rocks or warning flags.
Facilities & atmosphere
Local eating places and commercial beach areas; some services are tied to a resort or day package.
When to go?
December–March are an editorial selection from the generally drier part of the year. Ho Chi Minh City’s climate series gives only a regional pattern; check wind and waves locally.
Find the beach
Indicative beach pin, not a confirmed entrance or route.

Bãi Sau — Vũng Tàu
Eastern side of Vũng Tàu
Back Beach, also called Bãi Sau or Thùy Vân, is Vũng Tàu’s familiar long urban beachfront. It suits a lively coastal break with a promenade and food nearby, rather than a remote-island experience.
Hàm Tiến — Mũi Né
Phan Thiết / Mũi Né
Much of Mũi Né’s familiar resort and water-sports coast lies around Hàm Tiến. Wind, kites and beach businesses shape its character. The width of the sand varies greatly by section and tide.
Đầm Trầu — Côn Đảo
Northwestern Côn Sơn, near the airport
A sandy bay close to Côn Sơn airport, with greenery and rocks at its edges. It is a different beach experience from Đất Dốc or the town waterfront; remain at the beach and respect airport boundaries.
