Lang Co - a world-renowned beautiful bay during the festival season.

VTV.vn - As one of the most beautiful bays in the world, Lang Co Bay impresses with its pristine beauty at the foot of Hai Van Pass, where the blue sea, lagoons, and majestic mountains converge.

Lang Co Bay is 42.5 km long, located more than 60 km from the center of Hue city and 20 km from Da Nang city.

A natural masterpiece amidst a heritage site.

Located more than 60 km from the center of Hue and only about 20 km from Da Nang, Lang Co Bay (Chan May - Lang Co commune, Hue City) is considered a precious gem on the famous Central Vietnam heritage route "Phong Nha - Ke Bang - Hue Imperial City - Hoi An Ancient Town - My Son Sanctuary". Spanning over 42.5 km, this bay boasts a harmonious blend of pristine nature and the romantic charm characteristic of the ancient capital region.

What makes Lang Co so special is its rare combination of sea, mountains, lagoons, and tropical forests. Looking down from Hai Van Pass, the entire bay appears like a soft, green silk ribbon embracing the foothills. The beach here is calm, with fine white sand, and the sea water is crystal clear and turquoise year-round. In the distance, the undulating mountain ranges are covered in the lush green of tropical forests, creating a scene that is both majestic and peaceful.

Nestled between mountains and the sea lies the vast Lap An lagoon.

Nestled between the sea and mountains is Lap An Lagoon, covering an area of ​​approximately 800 hectares, located near National Highway 1A. It's often referred to as the "Hue's Valley of Love" due to its picturesque and charming scenery. Every morning and evening, the calm waters of the lagoon blend with the sunset, creating a poetic natural landscape, making it a favorite check-in spot for tourists.

Besides its captivating scenery, Lang Co is also highly valued for its rich ecosystem with diverse marine life, coral reefs, and coastal vegetation. These outstanding natural values ​​led to its recognition as the 30th member of the Worldbays Club in May 2009 at its 5th Summit in Setúbal.

In May 2009, Lang Co Bay was voted one of the Top 30 most beautiful bays in the world.

Since the Nguyen Dynasty, the beauty of Lang Co Bay has led Emperor Khai Dinh to liken it to a "paradise on earth." Even today, after many years of tourism development, this bay still retains its almost pristine beauty, becoming an attractive destination for both domestic and international tourists.

Exciting series of events for "Lang Co - World's Most Beautiful Bay" in 2026

In the summer of 2026, Lang Co Bay will continue to attract attention as the People's Committee of Chan May Commune, Lang Co District, announces plans to organize the "Lang Co - World's Most Beautiful Bay 2026" program.

Combining tourism promotion with raising awareness of preserving the natural landscape is considered a necessary direction for Lang Co to continue maintaining its title as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.

Mr. Dinh Ngoc Hung, Chairman of the People's Committee of Chan May Commune - Lang Co District, said that the "Lang Co - World's Most Beautiful Bay" program not only contributes to creating more unique tourism products to serve local people and international tourists, but also opens up opportunities to attract investment and promote the development of local tourism economy in the future.
