Beaches on Cat Ba Island

Summer is the ideal time to travel and explore the beauty of Cat Ba (Hai Phong). With its impressive and diverse landscapes such as limestone cliffs, coral reefs, lagoons, beaches, and mangrove forests, Cat Ba was recognized by UNESCO as a World Biosphere Reserve in 2004.

If you don't have much time to explore the islands outside the bay like Lan Ha or Monkey Island, you can have fun at the Cat Co and Tung Thu beaches. These beaches are spacious, calm, have clear blue water, and are easy to navigate. However, summer is peak season, so the beaches are often very crowded, especially on weekends.

Beaches on Cai Chien Island

Cai Chien Island, located in Hai Ha district, is about 60 km northeast of Van Don district, Quang Ninh province. It's a pristine island, perfect for relaxing getaways and immersing yourself in the fresh air of the forest and sea.

On Cai Chien Island, there are three pristine beaches: Cai Chien, Vung Bau, and Dau Rong. Dau Rong Beach, located on the eastern side of the island, is considered the most beautiful, with over 2 km of gently sloping sandy shore and turquoise waters. Along the coastline, straight rows of casuarina trees embrace the sand, and a path allows visitors to enjoy leisurely strolls…

Cai Chien Island possesses a pristine beauty.

Titop Island Beach

Ti Top Beach was once listed among the Top 100 most beautiful beaches in the world in 2024 by Lonely Planet travel guide. Ti Top Island is a small island located in Ha Long Bay (Quang Ninh province), about 7-8 km southeast of Bai Chay tourist port.

On a tour of Ha Long Bay, in addition to popular destinations such as Rooster Islet, Incense Peak Islet, Surprise Cave, and Thien Cung Cave, Ti Top Island is also chosen by many tourists as a stopover to immerse themselves in experiences close to nature.

The beach here isn't large, but it's quiet, spacious, and clean thanks to the frequent ebb and flow of the tides, which wash away the dirt. Especially in the summer, this island becomes a favorite summer getaway for many tourists.
