Day 2
In the morning, after enjoying the buffet at the resort, you can take a taxi to visit Thien Cam Beach. Thien Cam Beach is the most attractive destination in Ha Tinh, known for its white sandy beach, emerald green water, and the picturesque beauty of the sea and the majestic Thien Cam mountain nearby.

Following the coastal road southward, you will reach Cua Nhuong fishing village with a history of over a hundred years, known for its traditional fish sauce making, providing a glimpse into the life of the fishing community.
Embark on a mesmerizing journey from Thiencam Sea through the Cua Nhuong Bridge. Turn left along the coastal edge, and you'll find yourself at the Cua Nhuong lighthouse. Below, discover pristine and secluded local beaches. The panoramic view from the lighthouse extends across the vast sea, especially enchanting as the sun sets, offering absolute tranquility in this Hà Tĩnh region.
For a venture into more untouched coastal areas, head to Thach Hai Beach (Thach Ha district), just 10 km from Ha Tinh City. The beach boasts fine, pure white sand and the fishing boats of local fishermen returning from the offshore waters.
When in Hà Tĩnh, don't miss the chance to savor 'banh beo.' It differs from the Huế version, made from clear flour, with shrimp filling, accompanied by aromatic herbs and dipped in sweet and sour fish sauce. Additionally, 'banh canh' and 'ram banh muot' are dishes that evoke fond memories for the people of Hà Tĩnh when away from home. 'Ram' consists of vermicelli, meat, mushrooms, rolled in 'banh muot' and dipped in garlic-chili fish sauce.
At the beaches, indulge in the rich Central Vietnamese seafood, such as steamed jumping squid, shredded fish salad, grilled fish, and boiled mantis shrimp. Dining establishments in Hà Tĩnh may not have flashy signs or specific addresses like many big cities, so before choosing a spot, feel free to inquire with the locals or pick a place where you see the community gathered for a meal.

On the final day in Hà Tĩnh, early risers can enjoy the sunrise, take a dip in the sea or pool, and stroll outside the resort to shop for souvenirs. Hà Tĩnh's renowned 'cu do' candy, with its crispy and sweet taste from humble ingredients like peanuts, rice paper, and honey, is a must-buy. Along with Duc Tho's 'banh gai,' 'cu do' candy makes for a delightful souvenir when exploring Hà Tĩnh.
