Egg Stone Beach
Although lacking the crystal-clear water and fine white sand, it is precisely for this reason that tourists are drawn to the unique scenery here. Egg Stone Beach is so named because it is filled with many super large, round stones that resemble dinosaur eggs.

Hon Chut Lighthouse
One of the oldest lighthouses in Vietnam, with a history of over 100 years. This lighthouse is considered the symbol of Binh Hung Island. From the top of the lighthouse, you can enjoy the breathtaking panoramic view of the beautiful sea. It also serves as a guiding light for lost fishermen's boats at sea.

Rock Wall Bay - Deep Cave
To reach Rock Wall Bay, you can take a glass-bottom boat or hike here. However, the hiking trail can be challenging, so tourists often choose the glass-bottom boat to reach Rock Wall Bay to admire the coral reefs through the boat's bottom during the journey.
The mountain cliffs here can reach up to 50m high, stretching horizontally along the coast like solid fort walls, with strange shapes. The sea waves crashing against these cliffs create an extremely majestic scene.
Mr. Nam Hai Mausoleum
Mr. Nam Hai Mausoleum is located right in the center of Binh Hung Island. This is the place of worship for Mr. Nam Hai (the whale), carrying significant cultural and spiritual meanings for the fishermen of Binh Hung and Vietnam as a whole. Every two years, the locals hold the Nghinh Ong festival to pray and express gratitude to Mr. Nam Hai.
The Nghinh Ong festival lasts for 3 days and 3 nights, during which time the locals refrain from going to the sea and instead organize feasts and gatherings after a period of hard work. The festival takes place from the 16th to the 18th day of the lunar month, every two years.
