Top 7 most beautiful beaches on Binh Hung Island

Although this island is still wild, there are many beautiful places that you may not be able to explore if you only stay here for one day. But no matter what, you must definitely visit the following outstanding places.

Kinh Beach

Kinh Beach is the first beach you must visit when coming to Binh Hung Island. This is the gathering point for boats to take tourists to Binh Hung Island, and is also the first place you will set foot on.

This place has a very beautiful location, leaning on a winding mountain pass next to the sea, to the east is the vast ocean, surrounded on all four sides by the green Chua mountain.

Note, you need to maintain general hygiene during your stay..

Egg Rock Beach

One of the places that attracts young people to check-in when coming to Binh Hung Island. To get down to the beach, visitors walk along the road up to Hon Chut lighthouse, near the top there is a road down, because it is a mountain road so it is a bit difficult to go.

Waking up early to welcome the sunrise to have a new day full of energy and fully admire the pure beauty of the early morning in a land, sometimes it will be a moment when we realize meaningful things about the locality, about life, about our trip.

And when you come to Binh Hung Island, wake up early and jog around Da Trung beach to watch the sunrise and listen to the peaceful, pure sound of the waves here!

Tamarind Beach

Cay Me Beach is also known as Hon Rua Beach. Although it is located right on Binh Hung Island, to get to this beach you need to rent a boat because there is no road down to the beach.

This beach is quite small, the sand is very clean. The water here is clear blue like swimming pool water, making visitors think this is an artificial beach. You can also camp here.

Freshwater Beach

The most attractive and beautiful beach in Binh Hung is called Freshwater Beach because it is the intersection of two bodies of water: a beach with the sea on the outside and a cave containing fresh water on the inside.

What is special is that it is located in the Nui Chua National Park area, surrounded by high mountains, so it has a unique and mysterious beauty. The water is extremely clear and you can see underwater creatures.

Banana Beach

Bai Chuoi is the beach with the widest sandbank in Binh Hung area and the deepest water level. Perhaps because it is quite deep, the water has a very strange banana green color that almost no other beach has, just like its name, Bai Chuoi.

Chuong Beach

Bai Chuong is located behind Binh Hung Island, from the bridge crossing the mountain to Bai Chuong takes about 15 minutes on foot. This beach is not famous for being the most beautiful or clearest beach, it is famous for being the place to watch the sunrise on the island.

This place has not been exploited for tourism so it is still very wild.

Cha La Beach

Cha La Beach is surrounded by rocky mountains and lots of trees. Cha La Beach has a gently sloping, smooth white sand beach and cool, clear water, extremely suitable for swimming.

Especially if you are an adventure lover and want to experience games on the sea, you should definitely visit this beach. This place often holds games such as pulling banana floats, beach ball tossing, etc., which are participated by many tourists.

Some other locations

Hon Chut Lighthouse

Before, you could watch the sunrise at Hon Chut lighthouse, but now it is a military zone so it has been cut off from tours, and recording devices are not allowed here. If discovered, they will be confiscated.

Currently, the border guards on the island only prohibit entry to the Hon Chut lighthouse area.

Dach Bay

The bay is surrounded by 40-50m high cliffs and deep blue sea, evoking a mysterious and wild look. This scene looks quite similar to Hang Rai in Vinh Hy.

Moreover, on high tide days, the canoe will take you deep into Da Dach Cave to feel its coolness.

Hang Tau – Yen Island

It is called Hang Tau because on days of heavy rain or storms, ships anchor in this cave. The water level here is 15m deep but because the sea water is extremely clear, you can see all the way to the bottom.

Bird's Nest Swing

A place that is very popular with tourists, especially young people, is the bird's nest swing built on the bank of Hoi Heo, suspended in the middle of the ocean.

Swing in the middle of the sea, with the emerald green sea below, makes your photo even more unique.

Eat and drink

When going to the sea, seafood will be the top priority of tourists. Grilled lobster, steamed sea urchin with eggs and grilled anchovy (also written as dzo fish) are dishes you should not miss when going to Binh Hung island.

Especially when going to Binh Hung, you should not miss eating on floating rafts and lobster restaurants.. The dining space is airy, romantic and very peaceful.
