As the annual lunar month of Chạp approaches, photography enthusiasts gather at Cổ Thạch (Tuy Phong, Bình Thuận) to capture the stunning moss-covered rocks in seven vibrant colors.
Pack your bags and set off for Cổ Thạch beach to witness the season of vibrant green moss covering the rocks.
Cổ Thạch is a renowned beach located in Tuy Phong district, Bình Thuận province. Over time, this place has become known for its pristine and spectacular rocky shore. Specifically, the Cổ Thạch beach is formed from multi-colored pebbles. Therefore, besides being called Cổ Thạch, it is also known as the '7-color rock beach'.

From the coastal city of Phan Thiết, travel about 90km north on National Highway 1A, and you will arrive at Cổ Thạch beach. Every lunar Chạp month, this beach experiences a fascinating natural phenomenon that attracts many tourists for exploration and photography.



Entering the dry season, under the influence of sunlight and tides, the rocks at Cổ Thạch put on a new coat of naturally refreshing green moss. However, to fully appreciate this beautiful scenery, you must visit Cổ Thạch during the ebb tide and sunrise, when the moss truly becomes lush green.

Every year, during the months when green moss covers the rocks, Cổ Thạch beach attracts a considerable number of visitors, including many photographers who come to create stunning images. Consequently, this period sees a surge in the service costs at this location. To capture the most pleasing photos and enjoy a leisurely exploration, it is advisable to seize the morning hours to witness the entire beach.


Moreover, in the vicinity of Cổ Thạch beach, there are numerous fascinating tourist attractions that you shouldn't overlook, such as Bàu Trắng, renowned as the most beautiful coastal route in Vietnam, Mũi Né, the resort capital, and Kê Gà, the oldest lighthouse in Southeast Asia.

Situated just about 300km away from Ho Chi Minh City, a 6-hour drive will lead you to a breathtaking scenery rarely found elsewhere. Cổ Thạch is an excellent destination for nature enthusiasts, particularly during this moss-covered season, ensuring you capture truly impressive nature photographs.
