According to locals, the name Doc Let is associated with the unique terrain here. In the past, to get to the beach, visitors had to "crawl" through soft, towering white sand dunes, each step causing their feet to sink.

Although transportation is now convenient, the unique name still makes tourists curious and evokes an interesting story about this coastal area.

Besides swimming, Doc Let also attracts tourists with the simple beauty of coastal fishing villages.

Early in the morning, the boat docks, and fishermen sell baskets of fresh fish, shrimp, and crabs right on the beach. Tourists can buy them on the spot, thanks to simple preparation, and immediately enjoy the taste of the ocean.

In recent years, Doc Let has begun to appear in resort tours, becoming a destination chosen by many families and groups of young people. Some tourist areas and resorts have invested, but the natural landscape is still preserved, not too dense with construction.

In addition, local people have also started doing community tourism, building accommodation facilities so that visitors can have rustic and intimate experiences.
